Study design: Retrospective cohort. Objective: We evaluate the correlation of the Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System for physical function (PROMIS-PF) with legacy patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) in patients…
Study design: Retrospective cohort study. Objectives: To evaluate demineralized bone matrix as an adjunct for instrumented lumbar spine fusion compared with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Methods: Clinical and…
Posterolateral fusion (PLIF) with autogenous bone graft is considered the gold standard for lumbar spinal fusion. However, the fusion rate and effectiveness of locally derived corticocancellous structural autograft vs. morcellized…
Myxopapillary ependymoma (MPE) is a relatively common neoplasm arising primarily in the filum terminale/lumbosacral region of the spinal cord. It is designated as a grade I tumor in the most…
Purpose: Analyze the diagnostic performance of suction drainage fluid culture for acute surgical site infection, which has not been specifically reported in spine surgery patients. Method: This was a retrospective…
Study design: Retrospective case-control study. Objectives: Vertebral end plate (EP) lesions include Modic changes, Schmorl's nodes, EP erosion, EP sclerosis, and so on. While previous studies have mostly focused on…
