Interbody Fusion. An inter-body fusion technique removes the disc from between the vertebrae that will be fused together. The discs are then replaced with a bone spacer made of either metal or plastic. There are three main types of inter-body fusion techniques. The posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) technique is performed through an incision in the back (hence, the posterior position) and is usually done when either a single fusion of two vertebrae or a double fusion, which involves three vertebrae, is required.
