METHODS : A single-centre, Retrospective cohort study, study on 74 patients with degenerative and lytic lumbar spondylolisthesis who underwent single level TLIF surgery between August 2020 and July 2022 with a minimum follow up of 1 year. Radiographic measures included disc angle(DA), SLL, lumbar lordosis(LL), anterior/posterior disc height(ADH/PDH), spondylolisthesis percentage(SP) and pelvic parameters like PI,PT,SS. Surgery-related measures included cage position, spondylolisthesis reduction rate, rod contouring and disc height restoration rate(DHRR). For analysis, change in SLL ≥ 8° indicated increased segmental lumbar lordosis(ISLL), and <8° indicated unincreased segmental lumbar lordosis(UISLL). RESULTS : Among the 74 patients, 46 had UISLL and 28 had ISLL. In lytic listhesis group, on multivariate analysis the LL, DA, cage position were significant predictors of restoration of SLL. In degenerative listhesis, age and SP were significant factors. DHRR was the only significant predictor for restoring good PI-LL. CONCLUSION : Preop LL, DA and intraoperative cage position emerged as significant predictive factors. Surgeons should place the cage more anteriorly, with efforts to restore disc height to maximise the restoration of SLL and to attain a good PI-LL. segmental lumbar lordosis spinopelvic balance cage position ratio predictive factors Figures Figure 1 Figure 2 BACKGROUND Spondylolisthesis is the translation of one vertebral body anteriorly over the adjacent caudal vertebra which results in symptomatic spinal canal stenosis causing axial pain and radiculopathy[ 1 ]. Surgical treatment if indicated, is helpful in improving the patients quality of life[ 2 ]. The existence of instability prompts the surgeon to offer fusion surgery rather than a decompression surgery[ 3 ]. TLIF(Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion) popularised by Harms and Rolinger in 1982 has been a time tested procedure which is commonly followed with high fusion rate[ 4 ]. It is of utmost importance to restore lumbar lordosis and sagittal balance after fusion spine surgeries, for achieving good functional outcomes[ 5 ]. Studies in the past have also stressed on the importance of achieving ideal ‘PI-LL(PI minus LL)’ in fusion surgeries[ 6 ]. Pelvic incidence(PI) is one of the important anatomic parameters of the pelvis and it equals to the sum of positional parameters, such as sacral slope(SS) and pelvic tilt(PT); (PI = SS + PT)[ 7 ]. Schwab et.al quantitatively proved that there is significant difference in the functional outcome as measured by the Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) between patients with PI-LL 9[ 8 ]. Achieving restoration of global alignment during short level lumbar fusion can be challenging, as only the segmental lumbar lordosis(SLL) is adjustable among all the spinopelvic parameters. Evaluation of the pre-operative and intra-operative parameters which are important to restore the SLL in spondylolisthesis patients is important for achieving good functional outcomes in these patients. Very sparse literature is available in this regard[ 9 ]. Previous studies have not taken into consideration the pelvic parameters[ 10 ] without which the evaluation is incomplete. There are no studies in literature which have assessed these parameters in the lytic type of spondylolisthesis. This gap in knowledge poses challenges for surgeons in preoperative planning. The aim of the present study is to assess the preoperative radiographic factors and specific surgical interventions in both degenerative and lytic lumbar spondylolisthesis patients, who underwent single level lumbar fusion surgery(LFS), with a focus on evaluating the predictors of postoperative restoration of SLL and spinopelvic balance. METHODS Study Population: After obtaining ethical clearance from the institutional ethical committee (IRB:TH-136/2023), we conducted a single-centre, retrospective cohort study on 74 patients with degenerative and lytic lumbar spondylolisthesis who underwent single level TLIF surgery at our institution between August 2020 and July 2022. Informed consent was waived. The inclusion criteria were as follows: (1) single level lumbar spondylolisthesis- degenerative/lytic type; (2) Meyerding grade I/II; (3) Availability of preoperative, postoperative and follow-up radiographic data and (4) a minimum follow-up of 12 months. Exclusion criteria included patients with multilevel spondylolisthesis, revision surgery, a history of prior trauma, and patients with incomplete data set. 41 patients were included in degenerative group and 33 were included in lytic group and were analysed separately. Preoperative radiographic measurements: [11,12] All radiographic measurements were performed by two trained spine surgeons and the average of the two measurements was recorded as the final result. All measurements are made from standing lateral view radiograph of lumbosacral spine and include the following: (1) Disc Angle(DA), the Cobb angle between the inferior endplate of superior vertebra and the superior endplate of inferior vertebra; (2)Segmental Lumbar Lordosis(SLL), the Cobb angle between the superior endplate of superior vertebra and the inferior endplate of caudal vertebra; (3) Lumbar Lordosis(LL), the Cobb angle between the superior endplates of both L1 and S1 vertebra; (4) Anterior Disc Height(ADH), the shortest distance between the anterior edges of the inferior endplate of superior vertebra and the superior endplate of inferior vertebra; (5) Posterior Disc Height(PDH), the shortest distance between the posterior edges of the inferior endplate of superior vertebra and the superior endplate of inferior vertebra; (6) Spondylolisthesis Percentage(SP), the ratio of the interval between two extended lines of the posterior aspect of upper and lower vertebra to the length of the superior endplate of lower vertebra; (7) Sacral Slop (SS), angle between the sacral end plate and the reference horizontal line; (8) Pelvic Incidence(PI), angle between the line perpendicular to the midpoint of the sacral end plate and the line between the midpoint of the sacral end plate and the centre of femoral heads; (9) Pelvic Tilt(PT), the angle between the line connecting the midpoint of the sacral end plate with the centre of femoral heads and the reference vertical line[13](figure.1) Surgery‑related parameters: [9,14] Standard TLIF procedure as described was done under general anaesthesia[15] Surgery related radiological measurements includes the following: (1) Cage position determined using the Central Point Ratio(CPR), calculated as the ratio of the distance between the midpoint of the cage and the posterior extent of the superior endplate of the inferior vertebra divided by the length of the superior endplate of the inferior vertebra (a/b ✕100%); (2) The Spondylolisthesis Reduction Rate(SRR) was calculated as ((post-op SP—pre-op SP)/(pre-op SP)) ✕ 100%; (3) The Disc Height Restoration Rate(DHRR) was calculated as ((post-op ADH/PDH—pre-op ADH/PDH)/(pre-op ADH/PDH)) ✕ 100%; (4) The Rod Contouring(RC), angle between tangents drawn to both ends of curved rod, measures the degree of lordosis built in to the rods during surgery[14] Changes in radiographic parameters were computed by subtracting the preoperative value from the last follow-up value. The LL is subtracted from PI to measure ‘PI-LL’. Then PI-LL mismatch if any was calculated.(figure.2) Patient grouping: For comparing, Patients were divided into two groups- increased segmental lumbar lordosis(ISLL) and unincreased segmental lumbar lordosis(UISLL). Change in Segmental Lumbar Lordosis(ΔSLL) ≥ 8° indicated ISLL, and otherwise, it was categorized as UISLL. Average value of ΔSLL was taken as 8° as there is no age or gender related differences between the groups based on this cut off value. For comparing, patients were also grouped into two on the basis of postoperative PI-LL value. PI-LL ≥ 9° is considered as ‘PI-LL Mismatch’ and grouped as ‘M’(Mismatch) and with PI-LL <9° is grouped as ‘NM’(Nonmismatch). Visual Analogue Score(VAS) was used to assess the changes in pain score and the functional outcome assessment was done with the help of Oswestry Disability Index(ODI). Statistical analysis: For data analysis, Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) was used. Continuous variables are expressed as mean±standard deviations or medians and analyzed with either independent two-sample t-testing or the Mann-Whitney U test, depending on the data normality. P <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Variables with a p value <0.05 on univariate analysis were assessed in a multivariate regression model to obtain the most important predictive factors. RESULTS The mean age of the entire cohort (degenerative and lytic) was 42.4years (range28–66 years) old, with 76% (56/74) of the patients being female. In our study 62% patients had a ΔSLL which was 8 0 ΔSLL who were analysed in ISLL group. Lytic listhesis: The mean age of patients with UISLL in lytic group was 42.64 years and that of ISLL was 40.55 years. There were 22 patients with UISLL and 11 patients with ISLL. No statistically significant differences were observed between ISLL and UISLL patients with respect to age and sex. On univariate analysis LL, DA, ADH, PDH, PI, PI-LL, cage position determined by CPR, were significant predictors of restoration of SLL in the post- operative period (Table 1).

In the lytic listhesis group there was no significant difference between the UISLL and the ISLL patients with respect to ODI and VAS scores. On evaluating the PI-LL values with ODI and VAS, patients with no mismatch (NM) i.e; PI-LL (PI-LL < 9 0 ) had better outcomes (P value<0.05) (Table 2).

Among the pre-operative and intraoperative parameters analysed only the grade of spondylolisthesis or SP was a significant predictor of restoration of SLL (Table 3). Also among the demographic parameters, age was a significant predictor of SLL restoration (younger age patients had better SLL in the post -operative period when compared to older patients). There was no significant difference between the groups (UISLL and ISLL) with respect to the functional outcome measures like VAS and ODI. However, similar to the lytic group, patients with no mismatch (NM) i.e. PI-LL (PI-LL < 9 0 ) had better functional outcomes (P value<0.05) Table 3- Univariate analysis of predictive factors in degenerative spondylolisthesis ΔSLL N Mean Std.

Kuhta et al[ 18 ] did a study to determine whether obtaining adequate LL or SLL during TLIF for one-level degenerative spondylolisthesis affects clinical outcome. The study was on 57 patients and found out that failure to restore SLL resulted in anterior displacement of the center of gravity, resulting in unfavourable postoperative clinical outcomes. Radovanovic et al[ 19 ] conducted a study among 84 patients to determine the association between postoperative sagittal spinopelvic alignment and clinical outcome following LFS for degenerative spondylolisthesis. The authors concluded that clinical outcome is influenced by the patient’s postoperative sagittal balance. Aoki[ 6 ]et al studied the influence of PI-LL mismatch on surgical outcomes for short-segment TLIF surgery. They found out that PI-LL mismatch influences post-operative residual symptoms, such as low back pain, lower extremity pain and numbness. In our study, all the patients exhibited significant improvements in the clinical outcome with respect to VAS and ODI scores. However, we could not establish any significant statistical difference between the ISLL and UISLL groups. But similar to the findings of Aoki et al, we found that ‘Non Mismatch PI-LL’ i.e PI-LL < 9 0 was important to achieve good functional outcome. So decompression of the involved neural structures and stabilization of affected segments by restoring sagittal balance is rather more important to reduce pain and to improve functional outcome after LFS. Table 3 - Univariate analysis of predictive factors in degenerative spondylolisthesis Pre‑op radiographic features and restoration of SLL and sagittal balance. There are studies in the past that describe the impact of pre-op spinal and pelvic parameters on radiographic outcomes in LFS. Crawford et al[ 19 ] conducted a retrospective cohort study to find out the predictors of SLL following TLIF in 61 patients. Multivariate regression analysis showed that preoperative SLL was the only factor which is associated with change in SLL. C Berlin et al[ 20 ] conducted a retrospective study in 121 patients (both isthmic and degenerative) and found that preoperative SLL at L4/5 level was able to predict SLL correction achievable by TLIF surgery. Alahmari et al[ 21 ] conducted retrospective cohort study and found out that preoperative DA is an independent predictor of SLL correction after TLIF surgery. They concluded that patients who have a kyphotic DA preoperatively, gain more lordosis with interbody cage use. Unfortunately there exist much difference in the findings between each study due to different type of spondylolisthesis, different surgical levels, and variations in the number of fused segments. Many of these studies have not taken into consideration the pelvic parameters without which the evaluation is very much incomplete. This difference may, to some extent, compromise the acceptance of the results obtained from these studies. In our study, following the meticulous matching of the involved patients, it became evident that, only LL and DA are radiographic predictive parameters for ISLL after multivariate analysis in entire cohort and also in lytic group. SP was the only predictive factor, noticed in degenerative group for restoration of SLL. It is also evident that, after multivariate analysis, none of the pelvic parameters became an independent predictive factor for restoration of SLL in any group. Instead of SLL, preop LL was found to be an independent factor for SLL restoration which is in contrary to many of the previous studies. This indicates that, the patients with lower pre-op LL and DA possessed a higher propensity for radiographic improvement after surgery. Intraoperative surgical interventions and restoration of SLL and sagittal balance Studies in the past have shown that, in addition to radiographic factors, surgical interventions also plays a crucial role for ISLL and NM PI-LL. D Wang et al[ 9 ] conducted a retrospective study on assessing the radiographic and surgery-related predictive factors that increases SLL following LFS in 192 patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis. They found out that along with Pre-op SLL, cage position and SRR are significant predictors of SLL restoration after fusion surgery in degenerative spondylolisthesis. Emiliano et al[ 22 ] conducted a retrospective study to find out the correlation between cage positioning and LL in single level TLIF surgery. They concluded that TLIF with anterior cages has better radiographic outcomes regarding LL and SLL compared with posterior devices in spinal fusion surgeries. Haan et al[ 23 ] retrospectively studied on the association between RC and postoperative outcomes in 97 patients undergoing posterior LFS. They confirmed that intraoperative rod contouring procedure had a significant impact on clinical outcomes. In our study, among the surgical factors which help in restoration of SLL, the position of the cage indicated by the CPR was the only significant predictive parameter for SLL restoration in listhesis patients (lytic + degenerative). For restoring an ideal PI-LL, only DHRR was found out to be a significant predictor. In our degenerative listhesis group analysis, only age and spondylolisthesis percentage were significant predictors for SLL restoration. This finding can be explained by the natural history of degenerative listhesis which shows more collapse of the disc space with ageing of the individual, therefore the good restoration of SLL in aged individuals. The findings from our study highlights the importance of using an appropriately sized cage and positioning it well anterior within the disc space for successful restoration of SLL which in turn restores a good LL and prevents PI-LL mismatch for favourable outcomes in single level lumbar fusion surgeries. As a retrospective cohort study, our study had only a relatively small sample size and a limited follow up duration. To validate our findings, future prospective longitudinal studies with larger sample size and longer follow up is required. Also it is important to note that all patients underwent surgery with a similar bullet type of cage, therefore reasonable comparison with other types of cages and their contribution towards SLL restoration could not be assessed. CONCLUSIONS Preop LL, DA and intraoperative cage position emerged as significant predictive factors for restoration of SLL and sagittal balance post-surgery.

caudal vertebra which results in symptomatic spinal canal stenosis causing axial pain and radiculopathy[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR1\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e1\u003c/span\u003e]. Surgical treatment if indicated, is helpful in improving the patients quality of life[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR2\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e2\u003c/span\u003e]. The existence of instability prompts the surgeon to offer fusion surgery rather than a decompression surgery[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR3\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e3\u003c/span\u003e]. TLIF(Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion) popularised by Harms and Rolinger in 1982 has been a time tested procedure which is commonly followed with high fusion rate[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR4\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e4\u003c/span\u003e].\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt is of utmost importance to restore lumbar lordosis and sagittal balance after fusion spine surgeries, for achieving good functional outcomes[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR5\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e]. Studies in the past have also stressed on the importance of achieving ideal \u0026lsquo;PI-LL(PI minus LL)\u0026rsquo; in fusion surgeries[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR6\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e6\u003c/span\u003e]. Pelvic incidence(PI) is one of the important anatomic parameters of the pelvis and it equals to the sum of positional parameters, such as sacral slope(SS) and pelvic tilt(PT); (PI\u0026thinsp;=\u0026thinsp;SS\u0026thinsp;+\u0026thinsp;PT)[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR7\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e7\u003c/span\u003e]. Schwab et.al quantitatively proved that there is significant difference in the functional outcome as measured by the Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) between patients with PI-LL\u0026thinsp;\u0026lt;\u0026thinsp;9 and PI-LL\u0026thinsp;\u0026gt;\u0026thinsp;9[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR8\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e8\u003c/span\u003e]. Achieving restoration of global alignment during short level lumbar fusion can be challenging, as only the segmental lumbar lordosis(SLL) is adjustable among all the spinopelvic parameters. Evaluation of the pre-operative and intra-operative parameters which are important to restore the SLL in spondylolisthesis patients is important for achieving good functional outcomes in these patients. Very sparse literature is available in this regard[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e9\u003c/span\u003e]. Previous studies have not taken into consideration the pelvic parameters[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR10\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e10\u003c/span\u003e] without which the evaluation is incomplete. There are no studies in literature which have assessed these parameters in the lytic type of spondylolisthesis. This gap in knowledge poses challenges for surgeons in preoperative planning.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe aim of the present study is to assess the preoperative radiographic factors and specific surgical interventions in both degenerative and lytic lumbar spondylolisthesis patients, who underwent single level lumbar fusion surgery(LFS), with a focus on evaluating the predictors of postoperative restoration of SLL and spinopelvic balance.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"METHODS","content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStudy Population:\u003c/strong\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter obtaining ethical clearance from the institutional ethical committee (IRB:TH-136/2023), we conducted a single-centre, retrospective cohort study on 74 patients with degenerative and lytic lumbar spondylolisthesis who underwent single level TLIF surgery at our institution between August 2020 and July 2022.

Kuhta et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR18\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e18\u003c/span\u003e] did a study to determine whether obtaining adequate LL or SLL during TLIF for one-level degenerative spondylolisthesis affects clinical outcome. The study was on 57 patients and found out that failure to restore SLL resulted in anterior displacement of the center of gravity, resulting in unfavourable postoperative clinical outcomes. Radovanovic et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR19\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e19\u003c/span\u003e] conducted a study among 84 patients to determine the association between postoperative sagittal spinopelvic alignment and clinical outcome following LFS for degenerative spondylolisthesis. The authors concluded that clinical outcome is influenced by the patient\u0026rsquo;s postoperative sagittal balance. Aoki[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR6\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e6\u003c/span\u003e]et al studied the influence of PI-LL mismatch on surgical outcomes for short-segment TLIF surgery. They found out that PI-LL mismatch influences post-operative residual symptoms, such as low back pain, lower extremity pain and numbness. In our study, all the patients exhibited significant improvements in the clinical outcome with respect to VAS and ODI scores. However, we could not establish any significant statistical difference between the ISLL and UISLL groups. But similar to the findings of Aoki et al, we found that \u0026lsquo;Non Mismatch PI-LL\u0026rsquo; i.e PI-LL\u0026thinsp;\u0026lt;\u0026thinsp;9\u003csup\u003e0\u003c/sup\u003e was important to achieve good functional outcome.

Crawford et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR19\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e19\u003c/span\u003e] conducted a retrospective cohort study to find out the predictors of SLL following TLIF in 61 patients. Multivariate regression analysis showed that preoperative SLL was the only factor which is associated with change in SLL. C Berlin et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR20\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e20\u003c/span\u003e] conducted a retrospective study in 121 patients (both isthmic and degenerative) and found that preoperative SLL at L4/5 level was able to predict SLL correction achievable by TLIF surgery. Alahmari et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR21\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e21\u003c/span\u003e] conducted retrospective cohort study and found out that preoperative DA is an independent predictor of SLL correction after TLIF surgery. They concluded that patients who have a kyphotic DA preoperatively, gain more lordosis with interbody cage use. Unfortunately there exist much difference in the findings between each study due to different type of spondylolisthesis, different surgical levels, and variations in the number of fused segments. Many of these studies have not taken into consideration the pelvic parameters without which the evaluation is very much incomplete. This difference may, to some extent, compromise the acceptance of the results obtained from these studies.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn our study, following the meticulous matching of the involved patients, it became evident that, only LL and DA are radiographic predictive parameters for ISLL after multivariate analysis in entire cohort and also in lytic group. SP was the only predictive factor, noticed in degenerative group for restoration of SLL. It is also evident that, after multivariate analysis, none of the pelvic parameters became an independent predictive factor for restoration of SLL in any group. Instead of SLL, preop LL was found to be an independent factor for SLL restoration which is in contrary to many of the previous studies. This indicates that, the patients with lower pre-op LL and DA possessed a higher propensity for radiographic improvement after surgery.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec12\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eIntraoperative surgical interventions and restoration of SLL and sagittal balance\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eStudies in the past have shown that, in addition to radiographic factors, surgical interventions also plays a crucial role for ISLL and NM PI-LL. D Wang et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR9\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e9\u003c/span\u003e] conducted a retrospective study on assessing the radiographic and surgery-related predictive factors that increases SLL following LFS in 192 patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis.

Emiliano et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR22\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e22\u003c/span\u003e] conducted a retrospective study to find out the correlation between cage positioning and LL in single level TLIF surgery. They concluded that TLIF with anterior cages has better radiographic outcomes regarding LL and SLL compared with posterior devices in spinal fusion surgeries. Haan et al[\u003cspan citationid=\"CR23\" class=\"CitationRef\"\u003e23\u003c/span\u003e] retrospectively studied on the association between RC and postoperative outcomes in 97 patients undergoing posterior LFS. They confirmed that intraoperative rod contouring procedure had a significant impact on clinical outcomes.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn our study, among the surgical factors which help in restoration of SLL, the position of the cage indicated by the CPR was the only significant predictive parameter for SLL restoration in listhesis patients (lytic\u0026thinsp;+\u0026thinsp;degenerative). For restoring an ideal PI-LL, only DHRR was found out to be a significant predictor. In our degenerative listhesis group analysis, only age and spondylolisthesis percentage were significant predictors for SLL restoration. This finding can be explained by the natural history of degenerative listhesis which shows more collapse of the disc space with ageing of the individual, therefore the good restoration of SLL in aged individuals. The findings from our study highlights the importance of using an appropriately sized cage and positioning it well anterior within the disc space for successful restoration of SLL which in turn restores a good LL and prevents PI-LL mismatch for favourable outcomes in single level lumbar fusion surgeries.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAs a retrospective cohort study, our study had only a relatively small sample size and a limited follow up duration. To validate our findings, future prospective longitudinal studies with larger sample size and longer follow up is required. Also it is important to note that all patients underwent surgery with a similar bullet type of cage, therefore reasonable comparison with other types of cages and their contribution towards SLL restoration could not be assessed.\u003c/p\u003e \u003c/div\u003e"},{"header":"CONCLUSIONS","content":"\u003cp\u003ePreop LL, DA and intraoperative cage position emerged as significant predictive factors for restoration of SLL and sagittal balance post-surgery.

Radiographic measures included disc angle(DA), SLL, lumbar lordosis(LL), anterior/posterior disc height(ADH/PDH), spondylolisthesis percentage(SP) and pelvic parameters like PI,PT,SS. Surgery-related measures included cage position, spondylolisthesis reduction rate, rod contouring and disc height restoration rate(DHRR). For analysis, change in SLL ≥ 8° indicated increased segmental lumbar lordosis(ISLL), and \u0026lt;8° indicated unincreased segmental lumbar lordosis(UISLL).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRESULTS\u003c/strong\u003e: Among the 74 patients, 46 had UISLL and 28 had ISLL. In lytic listhesis group, on multivariate analysis the LL, DA, cage position were significant predictors of restoration of SLL. In degenerative listhesis, age and SP were significant factors. DHRR was the only significant predictor for restoring good PI-LL.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCONCLUSION\u003c/strong\u003e: Preop LL, DA and intraoperative cage position emerged as significant predictive factors.
