Study design A meta-analysis. Objective We performed a meta-analysis to explore the
incidence and risk factors of adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) after posterior lumbar …

Abstract Background Context Adjacent segment disease (ASD) is a potential complication
following lumbar spinal fusion. Purpose This study aimed to demonstrate the demographic …

Background The number of oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) procedures has
continued to rise over recent years. Adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) is a common …

Objective Screw loosening is a widely reported issue after spinal screw fixation and triggers
several complications after lumbar interbody fusion. Osteoporosis is an essential risk factor …

The mismatch between bony endplates (BEPs) and grafted bone (GB) triggers several
complications biomechanically. However, no published study has identified whether this …

Background: Although multiple studies have investigated risk factors for symptomatic
adjacent segment disease (ASD) after lumbar fusion, their findings were diverse and …

The vertebral body's Hounsfield unit (HU) value can credibly reflect patients' bone mineral
density (BMD). Given that poor bone-screw integration initially triggers screw loosening and …

As robotics in spine surgery has progressed over the past 2 decades, studies have shown
mixed results on its clinical outcomes and economic impact. In this review, we highlight the …

Robotics in spinal surgery offers a promising potential to refine and improve the minimally
invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF) technique. Suitable surgeons for …

Methods Patients who underwent minimally invasive lumbar fusion for degenerative
pathology using floor-mounted robot (ExcelsiusGPS) were included. Pedicle screw …
