Core Tip
Core Tip: The cortical bone trajectory (CBT) has obvious advantages in terms of surgical trauma, postoperative recovery, prevention and treatment of adjacent vertebral disease, and the surgical treatment of obese and osteoporosis patients. This review presents the biomechanical characteristics, the perioperative osteoporosis management of midle line fusion (MIDLF) surgery, the clinical effect of MIDLF when comparing to other lumbar fusion surgery, the clinical effect of MIDLF for the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis, the advantages about MIDLF for spinal revision surgery, and the computer navigation-assisted CBT technique.
