DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2019.08.060
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Minimally invasive surgery (MIS), or percutaneous, lumbar pedicle screw placement is commonly done, but the percutaneous nature of this makes posterior arthrodesis extremely difficult. Many times, surgeons will simply forego posterior arthrodesis, place posterior… read more here.

DOI: 10.1227/ons.0000000000000531
Abstract: BACKGROUND: For percutaneous lumbar fusion (percLIF), magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography are critical to defining surgical corridors. Currently, these scans are performed separately, and surgeons then use fluoroscopy or neuromonitoring to guide instruments through… read more here.
