Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine clinical and radiographic outcomes for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients who underwent posterior spinal fusion from T2/3 to L5 (without pelvic…
Study design: Retrospective review of prospectively collected data. Objective: To analyze the learning curves of three spine surgeons for robotic minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF). Summary of background…
The crosses, T/+ or T/tw2 ×btm/btm, give rise to 50% incidence of the tailless mice, development of which was investigated. No difference was seen in external appearance of the embryos…
Background and objectives: The prone transpsoas (PTP) approach for lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) is a novel technique for degenerative lumbar spine disease. However, there is a paucity of information…

Backgrounds: To evaluate the effects of different pedicle screw augmentation strategies on screw loosening and adjacent segment collapse at the proximal end of long-segment instrumentation. Methods: Eighteen osteoporotic (9 male,…
Background: Management of high-grade spondylolisthesis (HGS) remains challenging. Spinopelvic fixation such as iliac screw (IS) was developed to deal with HGS. However concerns regarding constructs prominence and increased infection-related revision…
Background: Posterior and lateral techniques have been described as approaches to sacroiliac joint arthrodesis. The purpose of this study was to compare the stabilizing effects of a novel posterior stabilization…
Background context: Computed tomography-based vertebral attenuation values (CT-based HU) have been shown to correlate with T-scores on DEXA scan; and have been acknowledged as an independent factor for predicting fragility…
