The primary outcomes were treatment effects [changes in visual analog score (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) from baseline] at 2 years after surgery; these were compared between two groups.

The rates of follow-up were 89% and 87% at 2 years, respectively. The comparisons of primary outcomes demonstrated no different changes in VAS-leg (OLIF, 3.4 vs. TLIF, 2.7), VAS-back (OLIF, 2.5 vs. TLIF, 2.1), and ODI (OLIF, 26.8 vs. TLIF, 30). The fusion rates were 86.1% in the TLIF group and 92.5% in the OLIF group at 2 years (\n                      <jats:italic>P\u2009<\/jats:italic>\n                      =\u20090.365). The OLIF group had less estimated blood loss (median, 200\u2005ml) than the TLIF group (median, 300\u2005ml) (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001). Greater restoration of disc height was obtained by OLIF (mean, 4.6\u2005mm) than the TLIF group (mean, 1.3\u2005mm) in the early postoperative period (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001).
