Anterior Column Realignment: Adult Sagittal Deformity Treatment Through Minimally Invasive Surgery

This article focuses on the treatment of sagittal spinal deformity using a minimally invasive technique, anterior column realignment. Traditional methods to address sagittal spine deformity have been associated with high morbidity, long operative times, and excessive blood loss. This technique uses a minimally invasive lateral retroperitoneal approach to release the anterior longitudinal ligament and apply a hyperlordotic implant for interbody fusion to restore lumbar lordosis and sagittal alignment.
