Inspired Spine Publishes Ebook Distinguishing Between Spinal OLIF and OLLIF Procedures
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) April 26, 2017 -- Inspired Spine has recently published an Ebook titled "Distinguishing Between the Spinal OLIF and OLLIF Procedures - Confusion with the War of the LIF’s". The Ebook is available complimentary and explains in detail the significant differences between the two procedures.
There are quite a few methods of achieving an interbody fusion in modern spine surgery. OLLIF is short for Oblique Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion. The OLLIF is truly a minimally invasive procedure, with a 15mm incision that safely performs an interbody fusion without direct visualization. The OLIF is short for Oblique Lumbar Interbody Fusion. The procedure requires direct visualization with an approach that traverses the abdominal cavity, which makes it significantly more invasive than the OLLIF.
The Ebook not only describes these differences in detail, but also explains the approach for five additional interbody fusion procedures. Pictures are used to explain these along with additional information including the levels that can be operated on, time necessary, and patient positioning information.
As the newest interbody technique, the OLLIF has been shown in several studies to save considerable OR time and patient length of stay compared to alternative procedures. Recently, the OLLIF surpassed the 500th case milestone with no infections reported and outcomes that have been tremendous for pain relief and increased function.
The Ebook is available on the Inspired Spine website HERE. Patients around the country and internationally have benefited from the procedure. Simply call (888) 378-2828 for more information regarding treatment. Surgeon training is also available as well.
