Study Design. Prospective cohort study. Objective. To study risk factors linked to spinal fusion surgical wound infection (SWI) incidence and compare the with rates in Madrid Region, Spain United States as a whole. Summary of Background Data. SWI is one complications posed by surgery. Indeed, surgery has higher rate than do other orthopedic surgeries such total hip or knee arthroplasty. The that are susceptible be modified will enable both and, extension, related morbidity, mortality, costs...
<h3>Background</h3> Spinal tuberculosis (TB), or Pott’s disease, is the most common form of osteoarticular TB. Early diagnosis and anti-TB drug therapy are mainstays treatment. However, in advanced stages, surgery essential to correct spinal deformities avoid neurological damage. Very few cases young children requiring surgical treatment have been described. We present 2 surgically treated thoracic TB patients under years age review literature on this entity children. <h3>Case...
Quasi-experimental intervention study.To assess the effect of a clinical safety and quality improvement plan for patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery on incidence surgical site infection (SSI).In recent years, surveillance control programs based care bundles have been included in protocols. These proven to be essential tools prevention SSI, providing indicators allowing characterization related risk factors.A quasi-experimental study was carried out with analysis before after...
Occipito-cervical metastases correspond to 0.5% of spinal metastases. The management these lesions is complex and involves multiple radiological studies, such as simple radiology, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Is vascular involvement suspected, tests assess permeability are also recommended (angioCT). This type lesion, due its location, may require different types approaches, commonly it will be the posterior approach, but sometimes anterior or anterolateral...
Study Design: This is a retrospective, observational comparative study. Objective: The aim of this study to determine whether relationship exists between the functional level and spinal deformity in patients with Down syndrome (DS). Summary Background Data: Patients DS have higher incidence scoliosis than general population; however, it unknown influences characteristics severity deformity. Materials Methods: Of 649 included pediatric referral center database, we identified 59 diagnosis...

Although osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children, its location axial skeleton rare, particularly at cervical spine. Early diagnosis, together with multidisciplinary management, improves survival rates. Safe resection and stable reconstruction are complicated by particular anatomy of spine, which raises risks.A 12-year-old male patient presented pain for several months a recent weight loss 3 kg. The complementary workup revealed large destructive lesion C7...
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> A few descriptions about anterior thoracic arthrodesis causing aortic pseudoaneurysms due to late screw loosening are mentioned in the literature. We report a case that describes hybrid approach complicated with an injury when removing from wall. 57-year-old man was initially operated on for scoliosis poliomyelitis using dorsal thoracolumbar situ fusion at early age. At adulthood, patient complained of spinal cord compression and severe myelopathy D9–D10 nonunion, required...
Minimally invasive spine surgery suffered a sustained development in the last 15 years. One of its main goals is to achieve same results as conventional with less blood loss, muscle damage, infection rate, and hospital stay. Surgical management thoracolumbar fractures aims correct sagittal deformities provide stable durable fixation. This article describes new percutaneous method fracture reduction based on 6-screw construct, which promotes an indirect fractured vertebrae lordotic rods...
