It was very narrow and it was approached by using spreaders different diameters to perform discectomy of L4-5. Using Preservon allograft LifeNet Health the right side of the disc cavity was filled by it. Using the shortest TLIF cage  Novel TL 7x12x25 was inserted to the disc space from the left. This was intentionally done avoid complete reduction to avoid stretching of the nerves and subsequent complications from over-reduction.
