This paper reviews the current published data regarding open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) in relation to minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF).

Introduction.

MI-TLIF, a modern method for lumbar interbody arthrodesis, has allowed for a minimally invasive method to treat degenerative spinal pathologies.

Currently, there is limited literature that compares TLIF directly to MI-TLIF.

Thus, we seek to discuss the current literature on these techniques.

Methods.

Using a PubMed search, we reviewed recent publications of open and MI-TLIF, dating from 2002 to 2012.

We discussed these studies and their findings in this paper, focusing on patient-reported outcomes as well as complications.

Results.

Data found in 14 articles of the literature was analyzed.

Using these reports, we found mean follow-up was 20 months.

The mean patient study size was 52.

Seven of the articles directly compared outcomes of open TLIF with MI-TLIF, such as mean duration of surgery, length of post-operative stay, blood loss, and complications.

Conclusion.

Although high-class data comparing these two techniques is lacking, the current evidence supports MI-TLIF with outcomes comparable to that of the traditional, open technique.

Further prospective, randomized studies will help to further our understanding of this minimally invasive technique.
