Direct Lateral Interbody Fusion (DLIF)
Direct lateral interbody fusion is a type of spine surgery that involves the removal of damaged intervertebral disc, and the insertion of a bone graft into the disc space created between the two adjoining vertebrae. The spine is also approached from the side and the underlying soft tissues and the psoas muscle are gently separated to reach the intervertebral disc.
