Lumbar fusion surgery for lumbar degenerative diseases has increased in the past several decades and many techniques for fusion surgery have been introduced. Recently lateral lumbar interbody fusion with minimally invasive technique was introduced and accepted as a useful method for various lumbar degenerative disease. It can produce good correction for sagittal and coronal imbalance with relatively decreased morbidity. The advantage of lateral lumbar interbody fusion is that it can avoid injury to the abdominal large vessels and neural structures which is more common during posterior approaches. However various complications had been reported. Complications related with lateral lumbar interbody fusion include neurologic complications including thigh pain and numbness, vascular complications including arterial injury, cage related complication such as cage subsidence and vertebral body fractures. Therefore special care should be taken to avoid possible complications in lateral lumbar interbody fusion surgery.
