Background: Degenerative disc disease, a major cause of low back pain and associated neurological symptoms, is a global health problem with the high morbidity, workforce loss, and socioeconomic burden. The present surgical strategy of disc resection and/or spinal fusion results in the functional loss of load, shock absorption, and movement; therefore, the development of new…

Background: Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) is a rare connective tissue disorder that results from mutations in collagen genes. Potentially related to laxity and resultant degenerative changes, adult EDS patients may require posterior lumbar fusion (PLF). However, with low numbers, adequately powered outcome studies have been limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate risk…
Background: Spinal tuberculosis (TB) is the most common extrapulmonary form of tuberculosis. In both developing and developed countries, TB has been on the rising trend due to factors such as increasing HIV coinfection, multidrug resistance of the organism, and global migration. Spinal TB, which most often affects the lower thoracic and thoracolumbar area, accounts for…
BackgroundVertebral endplates, innervated by the basivertebral nerve, can be a source of vertebrogenic low back pain when damaged with inflammation, visible as types 1 or 2 Modic changes. A randomized controlled trial (RCT) compared basivertebral nerve ablation (BVNA) to standard care (SC) showed significant differences between arms at 3 and 6-months. At 12-months, significant improvements…
Background: Postoperative readmissions are a commonly used metric for quality-of-care initiatives, but emergency department (ED) visits have received far less attention despite their substantial impact on patient satisfaction and healthcare spending. The current study described the incidence and timing of ED visits following single-level ACDF, determined predictive factors and reasons for ED utilization, and compared…
