Scoliosis Surgery in a Patient With Advanced Friedreich's Ataxia—It Is Not Too Late

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 1, Page 200-203, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Friedreich's ataxia is a multisystem disorder with scoliosis being the most common non‐neurological manifestation. While scoliosis surgery is typically performed in adolescent, ambulatory patients, few data exist on surgical outcomes in patients with advanced disease.

Lumbar Lateral Dislocation Fracture With Progressive Worsening of Trunk Tilt in Pisa Syndrome Associated With Parkinson′s Disease

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Parkinson′s disease rarely presents with Pisa syndrome, for which a patient may require corrective surgery because of trunk tilt. Herein, we report a case of lumbar dislocation fracture caused by minor trauma. The patient′s trunk tilt progressed, and neurological symptoms worsened, requiring surgical treatment.

Radiological Analysis of Thoracolumbar Junctional Degenerative Kyphosis in Patients with Lumbar Degenerative Kyphosis

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Thoracolumbar junction (TLJ) is the transitional area between the lower thoracic spine and the upper lumbar spine. Vertebral compression fractures and proximal junctional kyphosis following spine surgery often occur in this area.

A Novel Mutation of the FBN1 Gene in a Chinese Family With Marfan Syndrome and Unanticipated Discoveries of Family Members

open access: yesGenetics Research , Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder caused by pathogenic variants in the FBN1 gene. Using whole‐exome sequencing (WES) in a Chinese MFS family, we identified a novel heterozygous nonsense variant FBN1:c.1415dup;p.(Tyr472Ter), which cosegregates with the disease phenotype and results in protein truncation ...

Relationship of Preexisting Vertebral Fractures and Endplate Injury to Intervertebral Bridging Ossification After Balloon Kyphoplasty for Osteoporotic Vertebral Fractures

open access: yesJournal of Osteoporosis, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Introduction Intervertebral bridging ossification (IBO) occasionally occurs after balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs), contributing to stabilization. However, the predisposing factors remain unclear. This study aimed to identify preoperative factors associated with IBO formation. Methods This was a retrospective cohort

Pedicle Subtraction Osteotomy for Kyphosis Following Lumbar Fusion Surgery

open access: yesSpine Surgery and Related Research, 2018
Introduction: Pedicle subtraction osteotomy (PSO) is performed to correct sagittal plane deformity. This procedure is useful with revision cases in which the number of intact discs for correction is limited.

Vertebral Growth Modulation Through Periosteal Resection and Fixed Length Deformity Overcorrection: Computational and In Vivo Pilot Study

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
The feasibility of using growth promoting strategies (vertebral periosteal resection and distraction) was investigated via computational and in vivo analysis. Computational analysis demonstrated that there is an increasing mechanical benefit to utilizing concave distraction over convex compression during spinal deformity correction.

Subject‐Specific Musculoskeletal Modeling: The Future of Predicting and Preventing Proximal Junctional Failure in Adult Spinal Deformity

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Proximal junctional failure is a devastating complication in spinal deformity surgery. Subject‐specific musculoskeletal modeling offers a novel approach to improve prediction and prevention by integrating biomechanics, muscle function, and bone quality.

Thoracolumbar Biomechanical Analysis of Lenke Type 1 Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Across Roussouly Classifications

open access: yesJOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Finite element models of Lenke type 1 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis were morphed into Roussouly sagittal types 1–4 and subjected to pure moment loading. The figure illustrates how sagittal morphology modulates thoracolumbar biomechanics, with Roussouly types 3–4 showing reduced range of motion and more favorable disc loading than types 1–2.
