Is indirect foraminal decompression independent of metabolically active facet arthropathy in extreme lateral interbody fusion?
Significant indirect neural decompression is possible in XLIF, regardless of the presence of metabolically active FA.
Posterior dislocated lens fragments after phacoemulsification were safely retrieved using PPV. It appears that intervening early (within 4 weeks) and avoiding the use of US fragmentation are associated with a better visual outcome and reduced rate of postoperative complications.
