Core Tip The current study found preoperative magnetic resonance imaging-based vertebral bone quality (VBQ) score, particularly VBQ (S1), is independently correlated with total blood loss in patients undergoing transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF). In multi-segment TLIF cases, greater blood loss is associated with increased perioperative hemorrhage and may lead to prolonged hospital stays. These findings suggest that VBQ assessment could serve as a useful preoperative tool for predicting bleeding risk and optimizing perioperative management in TLIF patients.
