This study enrolled 87 concurrent patients between June 2016 and December 2019 (Wiltse TLIF 29 cases; MIS\u2010TLIF 28 cases; PLIF 30 cases). The three groups were compared for perioperative indicators (including intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, operation time, intraoperative fluoroscopy time, bedridden time), creatine kinase (CK), visual analog score (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, intervertebral fusion rate, muscle atrophy, and fatty infiltration (including ratio of multifidus atrophy and ratio of lean\u2010to\u2010total cross\u2010sectional area [CSA]).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Intraoperative blood loss (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a062.628, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), postoperative drainage volume (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a072.048, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), and bedridden time (\u03c7<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u00a0=\u00a062.289, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) were significantly lower in the MIS\u2010TLIF and Wiltse groups than in the PLIF group. The operative and intraoperative radiation times of the MIS\u2010TLIF group were significantly longer than those of the Wiltse and PLIF groups. The CK concentration in the Wiltse and MIS\u2010TLIF groups were significantly lower than those in the PLIF group 1\u2009day (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a09.331, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and 3\u2009days after surgery (<jats:italic>F<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a015.967, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001). The PLIF group's back pain VAS score was higher than those of the Wiltse and MIS\u2010TLIF groups.

The ratio of multifidus atrophy in the PLIF group (41.70\u2009\u00b1\u20098.84%) was significantly higher than those of the Wiltse group (24.13\u2009\u00b1\u20096.82%) and the MIS\u2010TLIF group (22.35\u2009\u00b1\u20095.03%).
