Objective: To observe the clinical effect of a combination of traditional Chinese and western medicine (sacral canal therapy combined with compound Fufang Wulingzhi Tangjiang) in the treatment of residual root…
Objective: We investigated the long-term effects of bone cement-augmented instrumentation in multilevel lumbar fusions in a retrospective cohort study. The use of cement-augmented screws is one of the techniques used…
Purpose: Thoracic disc herniations (TDHs) are rare compared with their cervical and lumbar counterparts. Posterior approaches allow for a simpler and less invasive surgery than anterior and lateral approaches. A…
Purpose: To explore a new magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based bone quality assessment method for predicting pedicle screw loosening in the lumbar spine. Methods: We reviewed 174 patients aged ≥50 years…
Study design: Prospective randomized controlled trial. Objectives: No prospective studies have directly compared clinical and radiographic outcomes of unilateral vs bilateral instrumented lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) for lumbar degenerative…
Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographical outcomes between OLIF and ALIF in treating lumbar degenerative diseases. Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of…
BACKGROUND Glottic entrance stenosis is an important cause of difficult airway intubation and may be potentially associated with scoliosis. This retrospective study from a single center in China aimed to…
Study design: Human Cadaveric Biomechanical Study. Objectives: Lumbar Lateral Interbody Fusion (LLIF) utilizing a wide cage has been reported as having favorable biomechanical characteristics. We examine the biomechanical stability of…
Background: To compare the CT values and length of the screw tracks of traditional trajectory (TT), cortical bone trajectory (CBT), and modified cortical bone trajectory (MCBT) screws and investigate the…
