Background
In the emerging field of robot‐assisted spine surgery, radiographic evaluation of pedicle screw accuracy in the surgical setting is of high interest. Advances in medical imaging have improved the accuracy of pedicle screw placement, from fluoroscopy‐guided to computer‐aided navigation.
Methods
A retrospective, institutional review board–exempt review of the first 106 navigated robot‐assisted...
Structured literature review.The Scoliosis Research Society requested an assessment of the current state of peer-reviewed evidence regarding pediatric lumbar spondylolisthesis to identify what is known and what research remains essential to further understanding.Pediatric lumbar spondylolisthesis is common, yet no formal synthesis of the published literature regarding treatment has been previously...
Recent studies have shown that prophylactic use of intrawound vancomycin in posterior instrumented spine surgery substantially decreases the incidence of wound infections requiring repeat surgery. Significant cost savings are thought to be associated with the use of vancomycin in this setting.To elucidate cost savings associated with the use of intrawound vancomycin in posterior spinal surgeries using...
