Published in Spine

Study Design. A before and after study cohort study. Objectives. The aim of this study was to examine changes in health care costs after multidisciplinary spine care in patients with complex chronic back pain (CBP), to analyze the predictive value of patient and disease characteristics on health care costs, and to study the potential impact of bias...

Increasing Fusion Rate Between 1 and 2 Years After Instrumented Posterolateral Spinal Fusion and the Role of Bone Grafti...

Published in Spine

Study Design. Two-year clinical and radiographic follow-up of a double-blind, multicenter, randomized, intra-patient controlled, non-inferiority trial comparing a bone graft substitute (AttraX® Putty) with autograft in instrumented posterolateral fusion (PLF) surgery. Objectives. The aim of this study was to compare PLF rates between 1 and 2 years ...

Neurological Outcome and Complications in Patients With Surgically Treated Spinal Metastases.

de Andrade, Erion Junior Martins, Samilly Conceição Maia Formentin, Cleiton Turolo, Otávio Vasconcelos, Victor Leal de Ghizoni, Enrico Tedeschi, Helder Joaquim, Andrei Fernandes

Published in Spine

Retrospective cohort. Evaluate the epidemiology of surgical patients with spinal metastases, identify the complications, and evaluate their neurological prognoses. The development of new oncological treatments and screening tests have increased the survival of oncologic patients, and consequently, the incidence of metastatic lesions of the spine. R...

Proximal Junctional Kyphosis After Posterior Spinal Fusion for Severe Kyphoscoliosis in a Patient With PIEZO2-deficient ...

Uehara, Masashi Kosho, Tomoki Takano, Kyoko Inaba, Yuji Kuraishi, Shugo Ikegami, Shota Oba, Hiroki Takizawa, Takashi Munakata, Ryo Hatakenaka, Terue ...

Published in Spine

Case report. Describe the clinical and radiological outcomes of a patient with a piezo-type mechanosensitive ion channel component 2 (PIEZO2)-deficient arthrogryposis receiving surgery for severe kyphoscoliosis. Spinal deformity is a characteristic feature of arthrogryposis due to PIEZO2 gene deficiency, for which surgical correction is indicated w...

Should Thoracolumbar Junction Be Always Avoided as Upper Instrumented Vertebra in Long Instrumented Fusion for Adult Spi...

Park, Se-Jun Lee, Chong-Suh Park, Jin-Sung Lee, Kyung-Jun

Published in Spine

Retrospective study. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for proximal junctional failure (PJF) following long instrumented fusion stopping at thoracolumbar junction (TLJ) in adult spinal deformity (ASD) and to determine which cases are suitable for TLJ stop without increasing the risk for PJF. PJF following long fusion for ASD...

The Oblique Corridor at L4-L5: A Radiographic-Anatomical Study Into the Feasibility for Lateral Interbody Fusion.

Ng, Julia Poh-Hwee Kaliya-Perumal, Arun-Kumar Tandon, Ankit Anil Oh, Jacob Yoong-Leong

Published in Spine

Cross-sectional radioanatomical study. The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence, size, and location of the oblique corridor (OC), and the morphology of the psoas muscle at the L4-L5 disc level. Lateral lumbar interbody fusion via the OC has the advantage of avoiding injury to the psoas muscle and lumbar plexus. However, the varying anato...

Trends in Leadership at Spine Surgery Fellowships.

Donnally, Chester J 3rd Schiller, Nicholas C Butler, Alexander J Sama, Andrew J Bondar, Kevin J Goz, Vadim Shenoy, Kartik Vaccaro, Alexander R Hilibrand, Alan S

Published in Spine

Cross-sectional study. To illustrate demographic trends among spine fellowship leaders (FLs). No previous study in the orthopedic literature has analyzed the demographic characteristics or past surgical training of FL in an orthopedic sub-specialty. We attempt to illustrate demographic trends among spine fellowship leadership including fellowship d...

Progression Prediction of Mild Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy by Somatosensory-evoked Potentials.

Feng, Xiaoning Hu, Yong Ma, Xun

Published in Spine

Retrospective study to correlate classification of somatosensory-evoked potentials (SEPs) with symptomatic progress of patients with mild cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of SEPs for predicting symptomatic progress of mild CSM. SEPs have been used for clinical diagnosis and intraoperative n...

Improvement in Patient Mental Well-being After Surgery for Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy.

Tamai, Koji Suzuki, Akinobu Terai, Hidetomi Hoshino, Masatoshi Toyoda, Hiromitsu Takahashi, Shinji Ohyama, Shoichiro Hori, Yusuke Yabu, Akito Nakamura, Hiroaki ...

Published in Spine

Retrospective cohort study. The aim of this study was to investigate changes in mental well-being after surgery for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) and identify factors associated with improvement. Posterior cervical surgery with laminoplasty significantly improves myelopathy and physical function in patients with CSM. However, its impact on ...
