Minimally-invasive trans-facet lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) is an emerging technique that offers the advantages of being safe, enabling decompression, and facilitating patient recovery. An innovative cage that expands in two dimensions has been introduced to restore segmental lordosis and disc height while minimizing the risk of cage subsidence. This study aimed to report our surgical technique of trans-facet LIF utilizing the innovative cag and to report the early clinical outcomes.
