ABSTRACT Introduction Ischemia–reperfusion injury due to vascular pedicle occlusion is one of the most common causes of free flap failure in head and neck cancer reconstruction. Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) has been proposed as an experimental, non‐invasive intervention to attenuate flap ischemia–reperfusion injury; however, the tissue ...

Comparing Fibula and Osteocutaneous Radial Forearm Free Flaps: A 20‐Year Retrospective Review
We compared the reconstructive outcomes of defects rehabilitated with fibula or OCRFFFs with a retrospective chart review from 20 years of data. Of our sample size of 52 patients, we found that OCRFFFs provide reconstruction of composite defects with significantly shorter operative times compared to fibula flaps; post‐operative flap survival and ...

Morphometric Analysis of Subaxial Cervical Vertebra Pedicles in the Turkish Population
Background/Objectives: One of the surgical interventions applied in the cervical region is the pedicle screw method. The cervical pedicle screw is stronger than any other screw method; however, use of the cervical pedicle screw is limited due to the ...

Endoscopic‐Assisted Posterior Atlantoaxial Fusion: Technical Innovation and Clinical Experience
Endoscopic‐assisted posterior atlantoaxial lateral mass fusion is introduced as a novel minimally invasive technique for treating atlantoaxial instability. The approach enables direct visualization, precise fixation, and effective bone fusion while minimizing muscle dissection, blood loss, and postoperative pain, achieving rapid neurological and ...

Objective Osteoporosis is a crucial risk factor for screw loosening. Our studies indicate that the bone mineral density (BMD) in the screw trajectory is a better predictor of screw loosening than the BMD of the lumbar spine or the screw insertion ...

In this study, we performed two approaches of MIS‐TLIF and percutaneous pedicle screw fixation to offer safe and effective treatment of high‐grade spondylolisthesis with satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes. ABSTRACT Objective High‐grade isthmic spondylolisthesis remains surgically controversial, and evidence on minimally invasive, single ...

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 ...

Chewing gum did not improve early bowel recovery after lumbar fusion. ABSTRACT Objective Given the paucity of prospective randomized evidence on chewing gum for postoperative bowel recovery in elderly spinal fusion patients, this study aimed to assess the efficacy of chewing gum in improving bowel function recovery in the elderly after posterior lumbar
