Background: Early-term complications may not predict long-term success after adult cervical deformity (ACD) correction. Objective: Evaluate whether optimal realignment results in similar rates of perioperative but achieves longer-term cost-utility. Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Methods: ACD patients with 2-year data included. Outcomes: distal junctional failure (DJF), good clinical outcome (GCO):[Meeting 2 3: (1) NDI>20 or meeting MCID, (2) mJOA≥14, (3)NRS-Neck improved≥2]....
Retrospective Cohort Study Objectives: Robot-assisted spine surgery (RASS) is a rapidly evolving technique with potential benefits for improving surgical outcomes. A number of studies on RASS learning curve have focused early iterations the Mazor robot. Limited research exists associated using Globus Medical ExcelsiusGPS
OBJECTIVE Recent debate has arisen between whether to use a three-column osteotomy (3CO) or multilevel low-grade (MLG) techniques treat severe sagittal malalignment in adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. The goal of this study was compare the outcomes 3CO and MLG performed corrective surgeries for ASD. METHODS ASD patients who had baseline PI-LL > 30° 2-year follow-up data were included. Patients underwent either (thoracolumbar posterior column osteotomies at ≥ 3 levels anterior lumbar...
Surgical correction of cervical deformity (CD) has been associated with superior alignment and functional outcomes. It not yet determined whether baseline or postoperative T1 slope (T1S) C2 (C2S) correlate health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) metrics radiographic complications, such as distal junctional kyphosis (DJK) failure (DJF). The objective this study was to determine the impact T1S C2S severity on HRQoL DJF development in patients CD who underwent a fusion procedure.
Study Design/Setting. Retrospective single-center study. Background. The global alignment and proportion score is widely used in adult spinal deformity surgery. However, it not specific to the parameters cervical (ACD). Purpose. Create a cervicothoracic (CAP) patients with operative ACD. Methods. Patients ACD 2-year data were included. Parameters consisted of relative McGregor’s Slope [RMGS = (MGS × 1.5)/0.9], lordosis [RCL CL – thoracic kyphosis (TK)], Cervical Lordosis Distribution Index...
Postoperative complication rates remain relatively high after adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. The extent to which modifiable patient-related factors influence in patients with ASD has not been effectively evaluated. aim of this retrospective cohort study was evaluate the association between and complications corrective surgery for ASD.ASD two-year data were included. Complications categorized as follows: any complication, major, medical, surgical, major mechanical, radiological,...
The impact of not achieving ideal realignment in the global alignment and proportion (GAP) score adult spinal deformity (ASD) correction on clinical outcomes is understudied at present.
Background:The COVID-19 pandemic led to health care practitioners utilizing new technologies deliver care, including telemedicine. The purpose of this study was examine the effect rapidly proliferative use video visits on opioid prescribing orthopedic patients at a large academic system that had existing procedure-specific guidelines.Methods:This IRB-exempt examined 651 prescriptions written who (visual and audio), telephone (audio only), or in-person encounters our institution from March 1...
Study design/setting Retrospective cohort. Objective Adult spinal deformity (ASD) corrective surgery is often a highly invasive procedure portending patients to both immediate and long-term complications. Therefore, we sought compare the economic impact of certain complications before after 2 years. Methods ASD with minimum 3-year data included. Complication groups were defined as follows: any complication, major, medical, mechanical, radiographic, reoperation. Complications stratified by...
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.Purpose: To determine the incidence and success of three-column osteotomies (3COs) performed in primary revision adult spine deformity (ASD) corrective surgeries.Overview Literature: 3COs are often required to correct severe, rigid ASD presentations. However, controversy remains on utility 3COs, particularly surgery.Methods: Patients having 2-year data were included divided into 3CO non-3CO (remaining cohort) groups. For subanalysis, patients...
Retrospective cohort study. Assess whether modifying spinal alignment goals to accommodate frailty considerations will decrease mechanical complications and maximize clinical outcomes. The Global Alignment Proportion (GAP) score was developed assist in reducing complications, but has had less success predicting such events external validation. Higher many of its components have been linked the development implant failure. Therefore, GAP with may strengthen ability predict complications. We...
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: Construct an individualized cervical realignment strategy based on patient parameters at the presentation that results in superior 2-year health-related quality of life metrics and decreased rates junctional failure reoperation following adult deformity surgery. Summary Background Data: Research has previously focused thresholds for maximizing clinical outcomes while minimizing complications. However, strategies may differ characteristics....
Study Design/setting. Retrospective Objective. Evaluate the surgical technique that has greatest influence on rate of junctional failure following ASD surgery. Summary Background Data. Differing presentations adult spinal deformity(ASD) may extent intervention and use prophylaxis at base or summit a fusion construct to rates. Materials Methods. patients with two-year(2Y) data least 5-level pelvis were included. Patients divided based UIV: [Longer Construct: T1-T4; Shorter T8-T12]. Parameters...
Subacromial decompression with acromioplasty is among the most commonly performed shoulder procedures. The advantages of in-office nano-arthroscopy include capability diagnosing and treating subacromial impingement, swifter patient recovery, improved cost-effectiveness, superior satisfaction. purpose this technical report to describe our technique for performing (subacromial bursectomy acromioplasty), a particular focus on appropriate indications, providing sufficient local anesthesia,...
