Low‐Profile Posterior Lumbar Fusion Combined With Proximal Interlaminar Coflex Dynamic Fixation for Lumbar Degenerative Diseases: A Comparative Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 8, Page 1753-1767, August 2026.
Low‐profile topping‐off surgery, combining cortical bone trajectory screws with pedicle screws and Coflex stabilization, achieved comparable clinical outcomes to traditional topping‐off, with reduced incision length, blood loss, and drainage. This technique offers a less invasive approach and faster recovery for patients with lumbar degenerative ...

Abnormal Cervical Facet Orientation and Congenital Stenosis: Case Reports and Biomechanical Implications—Illustrative Cases

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In patients with congenital cervical stenosis, the addition of abnormal cervical facet orientation (horizontal or hypoplastic joints) may predispose to segmental instability, subluxation, and canal compromise. Full assessment of facet anatomy is essential pre‐operatively, as selected patients (e.g., those with demonstrable subluxation, widened
