Abstract

Low back pain caused by degenerative disc disease is of such intensity in a low percentage of cases that surgery is indicated. Surgery must not only stabilize, but it must above all correct the deformity, recovering the disc space. Among all of the methods available circumferential fusion with a double combined approach, that is, anterior and posterior, is held to be the most effective.
