Narrative Review. The management of spinal tumors requires a multi-disciplinary approach including surgery, radiation, and systemic therapy. Surgical approaches typically require posterior segmental instrumentation to maintain long-term stability. Carbon fiber reinforced pedicle screws (CFRP) are increasingly used in the oncologic setting due reductions both imaging artifacts radiotherapy perturbations compared titanium implants. We performed review literature highlight advantages future...
MINI: Surgical planning in sagittal imbalance is recognized as a key step of treatment to ensure good clinical results. Surgimap reliable tool predict satisfactory postoperative alignment. Setting by default pelvic tilt 20° improves predictive value during surgical planning.A cohort study.To evaluate the using regarding alignment.Surgical results.The study involved 40 nonconsecutive patients who underwent surgery for misalignment. Postoperative alignment measured vertical axis (SVA) and was...
Study Design: Pilot study. Objective: To develop and validate the feasibility accuracy of a newly designed navigational spinal instrument guiding tool for patient-matched thoracic lumbar pedicle screw placement in patients with severe scoliosis, to identify intraoperative challenges that may be relevant. Summary Background Data: Pedicle is challenging severely rotated scoliotic spine small diameters asymmetrical shape pedicles vertebrae. Patient-specific drill/positioning guides preplanned...
Narrative review. This article aims to provide a narrative review of the current state research for liquid biopsy in spinal tumors and discuss potential application clinical management patients with tumors. A comprehensive literature was performed using PubMed, Google Scholar, Medline, Embase Cochrane databases, limited articles English language. All relevant which were identified be related biomarker study tumors, studied full text. Liquid has revolutionized field precision medicine by...
Narrative Review. Contextualized by a narrative review of recent literature, we propose wound complication prevention and management algorithm for spinal oncology patients. We highlight available strategies motivate future research to identify optimal individualized this population. conducted search studies (2010-2022) using relevant keywords primary literature in support current following spine tumor surgery. When specific cases was not available, data were extrapolated from other surgery...
Background and Objectives: Malnutrition’s prevalence its relationship with functional ability in patients end-stage spine pathologies, i.e., any disease of the vertebral bodies, intervertebral discs, associated joints requiring surgical intervention, are yet to be explored. This retrospective study aimed investigate association between malnutrition, disability, physical health undergoing elective surgery our Italian hospital. Materials Methods: Data 2016 2019, recorded at pre-admission...
Study Design Retrospective Cohort Study. Objectives To assess long-term alignment descriptors correlating with mechanical complications. Methods The study included adult spinal deformity cases older than 18, a minimum of four instrumented levels and 5-year follow-up. Exclusions: previous fusion, neuromuscular/rheumatic diseases, active infections, tumors, or incomplete radiographic exams. Collected data: demographic, surgical, pre- post-operative spinopelvic parameters, GAP score, original...
Study Design Retrospective cohort analysis. Objectives To evaluate the effectiveness of Lamartina-Berjano (L-B) classification in reducing mechanical complications patients with adult spinal deformities, a minimum follow-up 10 years. Methods The study included cases deformity at least years follow-up. rate clinically-relevant complications, defined as any implant-related issue requiring revision surgery, was estimated. independent variable adherence to treatment guidelines L-B...
