The objective of this study was to determine whether lumbar sagittal balance affects clinical outcomes after posterior interbody fusion. This series suggests that consideration of sagittal balance during posterior interbody fusion for degenerative spondylolisthesis can yield high levels of patient satisfaction and restore spinal balance SN - 1471-2474 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2474-12-69 DO - 10.1186/1471-2474-12-69 ID - Kim2011 ER -
