Objective: To explore the effect of Chinese massage on the rehabilitation of scoliosis patients undergoing 3D printing orthopedics. Methods: A retrospective selection of 262 patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS) who…
This meta-analysis aims to determine the clinical outcomes, complications, and fusion rates in endoscopic assisted intra-foraminal lumbar interbody fusion (iLIF) and minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF) for lumbar…
Purpose: Degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) is a debilitating condition that carries a high economic burden. As the global population ages, the number of patients over 80 years old demanding spinal fusion…
Introduction: Lumbar spinal fusion (LSF) may increase the risk of dislocation in patients who have undergone total hip arthroplasty (THA), especially when the LSF was done before the THA. Most…
Background: Establishing a normal L3-5 model and using finite element analysis to explore the biomechanical characteristics of extreme lateral interbody fusion (XLIF) with different internal fixation methods. Method: The L3-5…
Background: Bilateral pedicle screw (BPS) is the "gold standard" of fixation methods for patients with lumbar interbody fusion. Biomechanical deterioration initially triggers complications in the surgical segment. Studies proved that…
Background: There is limited data available on the use of orthoses across varying elective spine surgeries. When previously studied in 2009, inconsistent lumbar postoperative bracing practices were reported. The present…
