Purpose: This retrospective study was performed to analyze the clinical effects and complications of LSFCF in the surgical treatment of DLS combined with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Methods: A total…
Objectives: The operative microscope (OM) has revolutionized the field of modern spine surgery, however, it remains limited by several drawbacks. Recently, the exoscope (EX) system has been designed to assistant…
Background: The position and number of cages in minimally invasive transforaminal interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) are mainly determined by surgeons based on their individual experience. Therefore, it is important to investigate…
Minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS) is an important option for spinal operations, with advantages including rapid recovery and preservation of normal structures. As the number of geriatric patients is increasing,…
Background: The standard recommended and common reconstruction method for spinal tuberculosis is titanium mesh bone graft and autogenous iliac crest. However, these methods have their own disadvantages. Objective: To evaluate…
Background: While autologous bone grafts remain the gold standard for spinal fusion procedures, harvesting autologous bone is associated with significant complications, including donor site infection, hematomas, increased operative time, and…
Background: Bone autograft options may be limited in revision spinal fusion cases. Reconstruction of the iliac bone graft (IBG) donor site with cancellous bone allograft allows for reharvest for patients…
Background: This study aimed to assess the clinical efficacy of one-stage posterior surgery combined with anti-Brucella therapy in the treatment of lumbosacral brucellosis spondylitis (LBS). Methods: From June 2010 to…
Background: Compared with posterior interbody fusion techniques, oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF) offers a larger fusion bed with greater intervertebral space access, use of larger cages, more sufficient discectomy, and…
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy, safety, feasibility and biomechanical stability of contralateral bridge fixation of freehand minimally invasive pedicle screws (Freehand MIPS) combined with unilateral minimally invasive surgery-transforaminal lumbar interbody…
