AI Article Synopsis
- * These techniques provide access to different vertebral levels, such as transperitoneal, paramedian anterior retroperitoneal, oblique retroperitoneal, thoracolumbar transdiaphragmatic, and thoracotomy approaches.
- * The lumbar and lumbosacral regions are ideal for these approaches due to the movement of peritoneal organs and the arrangement of blood vessels in that area.
Article Abstract
There are a range of anterior-based approaches to address flexible adult spinal deformity from the thoracic spine to the sacrum, with each approach offering access to a range of vertebral levels. It includes the transperitoneal (L5-S1), paramedian anterior retroperitoneal (L3-S1), oblique retroperitoneal (L1-2 to L5-S1), the thoracolumbar transdiaphragmatic approach (T9-10 to L4-5), and thoracotomy approach (T4-T12). The lumbar and lumbosacral spine is especially favorable for anterior-based approaches given the relative mobility of the peritoneal organs and position of the vasculature.
