Analysis of Risk Factors for Adjacent Segment Disease After Lumbar Facet Joint Fusion

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 433-442, March 2026.
This schematic illustrates a novel posterior lumbar fusion procedure targeting L4–L5 segments, with emphasis on the position of split bone and the precise site of bone grafting. Featuring “active generation + real‐time verification” and intact posterior tension band, this technique achieves precise segmental lordosis restoration with enhanced ...

Evolution of spinopelvic alignment in hominins

, 2018
Spinopelvic alignment refers to the interaction between pelvic orientation, spinal curvatures, and the line of gravity. In a healthy modern human, this alignment is characterized by reciprocal curves/orientation of the sacrum, lumbar lordosis, thoracic ...

Radiologic Insights: Diagnosing Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae. Systematic Review of the Literature

Pain Practice, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction The lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LSTV) has been studied since 1876, with Castellvi developing a classification in 1984 based on its anatomy and laterality. It often goes unnoticed, or its diagnosis is limited to a lumbar spine X‐ray for confirmation. This has led to LSTV being underdiagnosed or even ignored.

Precision medicine in orthopaedics: A review of current technologies and future directions

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 2, Page 633-639, February 2026.
Abstract Purpose To synthesise the paradigm shift towards precision medicine in orthopaedics, where individual anatomical, biomechanical, molecular and kinematic characteristics are integrated into clinical decision‐making. Unlike traditional approaches applying uniform protocols, this review outlines how precision orthopaedics aims to tailor surgical ...

Mechanical complications and radiographic outcomes following sacral-only versus spinopelvic fixation in long-segment fusion terminating at the sacrum: a retrospective cohort study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Purpose Long-segment fusion terminating at the sacrum is associated with a substantial risk of distal mechanical complications, including screw loosening and pseudarthrosis.

Is Pedicle‐Screw Internal Fixation With Two Small Incisions Superior to Traditional MI ‐ TLIF With Four Incisions? Preliminary Follow‐Up Results

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 2, Page 300-310, February 2026.
A two‐incision MI‐TLIF showed comparable outcomes to the traditional four‐incision approach in single‐level patients. Excessive pursuit of smaller or fewer incisions demonstrated no significant short‐term advantage. Reduced exposure may still help minimize wound complications in vulnerable groups, warranting further targeted follow‐up.

Current Uses for Medical Imaging With Orthopaedic Implant Technology

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Musculoskeletal applications have been at the forefront of medical imaging since the first‐ever x‐ray was taken of a hand. Radiography remains routine in orthopaedics for surgical planning and diagnosing implant complications. Fluoroscopy is used to guide intra‐operative implant placement and to assess kinematics of different implants ...
