Adjacent Vertebral BMD Decline After Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 11, Page 3151-3158, November 2025.
To investigate the changes in the volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of the adjacent vertebral cancellous bone and endplate at the fusion level in patients undergoing lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF). The vBMD of the cancellous bone and endplates adjacent to the vertebral body, cephalad or caudal to the fused level, decreased after LLIF. vBMD

Junctional Failures Following Long-Level Fusion to L5 in Elderly Patients: Impact of Spinopelvic Alignment and L5–S1 Disc Degeneration

Medicina
Background and Objectives: Long spinal fusion terminating at L5 remains controversial because of the risk of postoperative junctional failure. Although degeneration of the residual L5–S1 disc has been suggested as a contributing factor, the relative ...

Patient-Specific Surgical Correction of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Systematic Review

Children
The restoration of sagittal alignment is fundamental to the surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Despite established techniques, some patients present with inadequate postoperative thoracic kyphosis (TK), which may increase the ...

Machine learning analysis of cervical balance in early-onset scoliosis post-growing rod surgery: a case-control study

Scientific Reports
We aimed to analyze the cervical sagittal alignment change following the growing rod treatment in early-onset scoliosis (EOS) and identify the risk factors of sagittal cervical imbalance after growing-rod surgery of machine learning.
