Pelvic fixation with S2-alar-iliac (S2AI) screws is an established technique in adult deformity surgery. The authors' objective was to report the incidence and risk factors for underreported acute failure mechanism of S2AI screws.The authors retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series ambulatory adults fusions extending 3 or more levels, which included screws. Acute defined as occurring within 6 months index surgery requiring surgical revision.Failure occurred 125 patients (5%) consisted...

Pelvic fixation enhances long constructs during deformity surgery. Subsequent loosening of iliac screws and pain at the pelvis occur in as many 29% patients. Concomitant sacroiliac (SI) fusion may prevent potential failure. The objective this study was to describe a novel surgical technique single institution's experience using bilateral SI adult surgery with S2-alar-iliac (S2AI) triangular titanium rods (TTRs) placed navigation.The authors reviewed open joint fusions TTR performed between...

Study Design Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Objectives To compare complication incidence in patients with or without the use of recombinant human Bone Morphogenic Protein-2 (BMP2) undergoing anterior cervical discectomy fusion (ACDF) for degenerative conditions. Methods A systematic search eight online databases was conducted using PRISMA guidelines. Inclusion criteria included English language studies a minimum 10 adult instrumented ACDF surgery spinal condition which BMP2 used all...

Background: Sacropelvic fixation is a continually evolving technique in the treatment of adult spinal deformity. The 2 most widely utilized techniques are iliac screw and S2-alar-iliac (S2AI) 1–3 . use these at base long fusion constructs, with goal providing solid to maintain surgical correction, has improved rates decreased revision 4 Description: procedure performed patient under general anesthesia prone position 3D computer navigation based on intraoperative cone-beam computed tomography...

Minimally invasive sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion is indicated for low back pain from the SI that due to degenerative sacroiliitis and/or disruption. This technique safe and effective in relieving uncontrolled by nonoperative management1-4. There some controversy, but there continues be increasing evidence of effectiveness.This procedure performed, with patient under general anesthesia prone position, using fluoroscopy or 3-dimensional (3D) navigation such as cone-beam computed tomographic...

Osteotomies allow the restoration of appropriate sagittal alignment; however, closure osteotomies can be challenging. Typical involves compressing pedicle screw heads across rods, potentially causing loosening and failure. Motorized hinged operating tables are often used to assist with controlled without manual compression, but there is no published research quantifying amount correction provided solely by changes in table angle.

We present a long-term follow-up on woman with otospondylomegaepiphyseal dysplasia (OSMED). At the age of 46 years, she is one oldest patients syndrome in literature to date. focus musculoskeletal anatomy and orthopaedic interventions over her lifetime.OSMED very rare syndrome. Arthritis joint pains presented early adolescence progressed point requiring replacements by 20s. Early intervention monitoring improved quality life for this patient.

We present a case series of proximal junctional failure due to Chance-type fracture.This is retrospective review patients who developed kyphosis because after spinal fusion for adult deformity.Fifteen were identified (4M:11F). The average age was 61.4 years (range, 39 77). mean time fracture identification 25.4 days 3 65). number levels instrumented 6.7 2 17). No had antecedent trauma before onset. In 67% cases with lumbar upper vertebra (UIV), there overcorrection lordosis (LL) and/or lower...
