There are few reports of intravenous unit-dose tranexamic acid (TXA) on the relationship between visible blood loss (VBL) and hidden blood loss (HBL) in posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF). Therefore,…
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility of using the Isobar TTL system and posterolateral fusion in a two-segment hybrid fixation approach, combined with spinal decompression,…

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) and open surgery for single-level lumbar fusion over a minimum of 10-year follow-up. Material…
Objective: Far lateral interbody fusion is a minimally invasive operating technique. However, the incidence of postoperative neurological complications is high, and some scholars question its safety. This study describes the…
Study design: Clinical and basic study. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate whether transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) using 2 banana-shaped cages leads to good clinical outcomes. Methods: First, we…
Background: The treatment of patients with Lenke 5 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is closely related to the pelvic because the spine-pelvis is an interacting whole. Besides, the choice of fusion…
Background In the management of lumbar spine diseases, various techniques have been described for minimizing intraoperative blood loss. Soft tissue extravasation and hemolysis have been referred to as hidden blood…
Background: Bacterial microbiome as a putative trigger of inflammation might indicate the cascade of mouth-gut-disc axis for causing intervertebral disc (IVD) structural failures (such as IVD degeneration and endplate change)…
