Abstract: BACKGROUND Recently, novel mobile intraoperative fan-beam computed tomography (CT) was introduced, allowing for real-time navigation and immediate intraoperative evaluation of neural decompression in spine surgery. This study sought to investigate whether intraoperatively assessed neural decompression… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Minimally invasive oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) techniques generally rely on deformity correction to achieve indirect neural decompression. However, indirect neural decompression will not always be sufficient. Thus, a second procedure, such as posterior… read more here.

Abstract: STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. OBJECTIVES Management of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) remains an unsolved problem for a spine surgeon. We hypothesize that instability at the fracture site rather than neural compression is the… read more here.

Abstract: The peculiarity of extreme lateral interbody fusion (LLIF) is the achievement of indirect neural decompression of the spinal canal while distracting the intervertebral disc space using an interbody cage. In this manuscript we will review… read more here.
