Factors and Experiences Associated With Unscheduled Hospital Readmission After Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion: A Case–Controlled Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1389-1396, May 2025.
The research utilized a case–control approach to contrast patients experiencing unscheduled readmissions with those undergoing planned readmissions due to staged surgery. Findings indicated a 3.88% rate of unscheduled readmissions, mainly linked to adjacent segment disease, with 3.35% necessitating reoperation.

Establishing a Staging System for Adjacent Segment Disease and Exploring Its Significance in Guiding Surgical Decisions: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1418-1432, May 2025.
Developed a staging system for adjacent segment disease based on degeneration characteristics. Verified the feasibility and reliability of stage‐guided surgical decision‐making through surgical data, radiological data, and follow‐up data. This staging system was closely correlated with intervertebral disc degeneration and disc height while also ...

Full Endoscopic Piecemeal Resection of Lumbar Ligamentum Flavum Cyst With Uniaxial Large Working Channel Spinal Endoscope: Technical Report and Case Series

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
The formation of lumbar ligamentum flavum cyst (LLFC) represents one of the extremely rare etiologies of lumbar spinal stenosis. Owing to the rarity of such cases and the severe adhesion of LLFC to adjacent tissues, significant challenges are posed to surgical intervention.
