Minimally invasive transforaminal interbody fusion using a tubular retractor under a microscope is a method of achieving fusion while reducing soft tissue injury. Recently, several studies have reported minimally invasive techniques for lumbar discectomy, decompression, and interbody fusion using biportal endoscopic spinal surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Materials and Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective study included 87 patients who underwent single-level TLIF for degenerative or isthmic spondylolisthesis between 2015 and 2018.
