ALIF (Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) is a technique in which a damaged lumbar disc is removed through an anterior abdominal approach and replaced with an interbody device. The implant helps restore the height and alignment of the affected spinal segment, while bone graft promotes the formation of a solid fusion between the vertebrae. In some cases, additional posterior fixation may be performed to provide stability. Detailed X-rays, CT, or MRI scans are used to evaluate the spine and plan treatment.
