Objective: Laminoplasty using mini-plates is one of most common surgical technique in surgeries for intraspinal pathologies. However, limited data had been present in the literature. The aim of this study…
Introduction: Degenerative diseases of the lumbar spine are often treated with posterior interbody fusion surgery (PLIF) for spinal instability or intractable back pain with neurological impairment. Several lateral, less invasive…
Background: Lumbar interbody fusion(LIF) is the leading way to treat Lumbar Degenerative Diseases(LDD). At present, there is a lack of research on the influencing factors of hidden blood loss in…
Background: To perform a comparative assessment of percutaneous transfacet screws (TFS) and percutaneous bilateral pedicle screws (BPS) in oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF) for the treatment of single-level degenerative lumbar…
Background: The percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic lumbar interbody fusion (PETLIF) has many advantages as a new minimally invasive surgical technique, and its surgical approach passes through the Kambin's triangle. One of…
Backgound: We previously described a procedure for eliciting deep spatial discrimination of individual segments in the healthy lumbar spine of normal subjects: the percutaneous mechanical provocation (PMP) test. Our goal…
Background: Cage subsidence causes poor prognoses in patients treated by oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF). Deterioration of the biomechanical environment initially triggers cage subsidence, and patients with low bone mineral…
Background: Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) is a complex clinical syndrome that leads to spinal compression. Decompression with fusion has been the most commonly used surgical procedure for treating DLSS…
Background: There were exponentially increased studies focused on revealing the satisfactory outcomes after implementing enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients undergoing lumbar fusion surgery. However, little attention has been…
Multilevel lumbar fusion with posterior pedicle screw fixation is a widely performed surgical procedure for the management of adult spinal deformity. However, there has not been a comprehensive biomechanical study…
