a Preoperative frontal and lateral view radiographs of a 62-year-old woman with low back pain demonstrated severe kyphosis and coronal spinal malalignment. b Multiple fused vertebrae at L1–2, L2–3, and L4–5 were found in multiplanar reconstruction of computed tomography. c The frontal radiograph exhibited LIR at L1/2 and L2/3 and XLIF at L3/4 were subseuqently performed. d Radiographs 1-year after surgery demonstrated that postoperative sagittal and coronal alignment were improved in this case. LIR; Lateral interbody release, XLIF; extreme lateral interbody fusion
