    Figure 1

    Case example of lumbar interbody fusion (LIF). Preoperative anterior-posterior (A) and lateral (C) radiographs demonstrate disc collapse at L2/3 secondary to adjacent segment disease (ASD). Postoperative anterior-posterior (B) and lateral (D) radiographs demonstrate restoration of disc height.

    Figure 2

    Preoperative magnetic resonance imaging, T2 weighted midsagittal cut (above) and axial cut at L2/3 (below) demonstrate disc degeneration, bilateral lateral recess stenosis, and central stenosis at L2/3.
