Hello friends, today I'm bringing you a video overview of the anterior lumbar interbody fusion or ALIF. This is a procedure to help take pressure of your nerves without having to go through the muscles of your back! We are able to make a small incision on your belly and insert all the hardware necessary to fuse two of your bones together if needed. The benefits of this procedure is leaving the muscles of the lower back uninterrupted which is perfect for patients who have had prior surgery or who have a lot of preoperative lower back pain. Learn more about it in the video above.

I'm a board certified orthopedic spine surgeon proudly serving the people of the Bradenton/Sarasota/Lakewood Ranch, FL area in a multispecialty orthopedic group called 360 Orthopedics (www.360orthopedics.com).
