Surgical Anatomy

Vascular mobilisation and bifurcation safety at L4-L5

Safe retroperitoneal access demands precise identification of the common iliac vein junction. Recent dissection series confirm that mobilisation thresholds vary significantly across patient body habitus, requiring meticulous segmental vessel control.

Our latest cohort review evaluates retraction pressures during oblique lateral interbody fusions, offering reproducible metrics for junior fellows.
