Background: The preoperative flexibility of the scoliotic spine is a key aspect of surgical planning, as it provides information on the rigidity of the curve, the extent of structural changes,…
Background: Intracranial solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs), formerly known as hemangiopericytomas, are rare, aggressive mesenchymal extra-axial tumors typically treated via resection, often with preoperative embolization and postoperative radiation and/or antiangiogenic therapy.…
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to characterize the sagittal spine in AIS patients with double major curves fused into the lumbar spine to determine the effects of posterior…

Background: Spinal ankylosing disorders (SADs) refer to a group of conditions resulting in spontaneous or postsurgical ossification and fusion of the spinal segments. The spine becomes increasingly susceptible to injury…
Background: Lumbar interbody fusion techniques treat degenerative lumbar diseases effectively. Minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) decreases soft tissue disruption and accelerates recovery better than standard open posterior lumbar…
Introduction: This article introduced the management of a case with severe left lower extremity pain and forced hip flexion after posterior lumbar interbody fusion and a final diagnosis of left…
Aim Cerebral palsy is frequently associated with neuromuscular scoliosis with larger curves requiring surgical intervention. The aim of this study was to assess the literature for the role and outcome…
Aim: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of multi-level TLIF (Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion) procedures in degenerative spine conditions on the restoration of sagittal balance. Material and methods:…
