We reviewed literatures relating to minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion for the treatment of adult degenerative spinal deformity. Most of literatures were retrospective case series with a small numbers of patients. A prospective multicenter study was published in two separate papers. This procedure was effective in treating the coronal deformity. On the other hand, restoring the sagittal plane remains an issue. Pseudarthrosis was problematic, especially in the cases without use of the human recombinant bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) and bilateral pedicle screw fixation. Temporary sensory deficits and transient leg weakness was the most common complication after lateral lumbar interbody fusion. Careful patient selection is important for the application of lateral minimally invasive techniques for adult degenerative scoliosis.
