Abstract
- The prepsoas oblique approach to the lumbar spine provides many similar benefits of the transpsoas lateral approach. Because the psoas is not traversed, however, many of the postoperative complications associated with psoas violation are reduced. Working at an oblique angle to the spine can be challenging and the approach may be unfamiliar for the surgeon. Thais article provides a technical description and nuances of the approach.
