Analysis of Risk Factors for Postoperative Progressive Segment Degeneration at the Decompression and Non-decompression Segments after Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression Surgery: A 5-year Follow-up Study

Habibi H, Toyoda H, Terai H, Yamada K, Kato M, Suzuki A, et al.

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):22-29. PMID: 39935990

Introduction: The risk factors for the development of progressive segment degeneration (PSD) after decompression surgery are still unknown. In this study, the risk factors for PSD in patients who undergo...

Trabecular Bone Remodeling after Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion: Indirect Findings for Stress Transmission between Vertebrae after Spinal Fusion Surgery

Segi N, Nakashima H, Ito S, Ouchida J, Oishi R, Yamauchi I, et al.

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):51-60. PMID: 39935989

Introduction: After posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF), trabecular bone remodeling (TBR) occurs in the vertebral body. This study aimed to investigate whether imaging findings obtained with PLIF are applicable to...

Clay Shoveler's Fracture: A Pain in the Neck

Boutros M, Karam M, Asmar M, Wakim E, Chebli L, Tarabay P, et al.

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):11-21. PMID: 39935987

Clay shoveler's fracture is a stable spinous process fracture commonly occurring at the seventh cervical vertebrae. The name originated in Australia during the 1930s, after many reports of similar injuries...

Hispanic Patients Undergoing Spinal Fusion for Neuromuscular Scoliosis Sustain Health Inequalities

Martinez A, Momtaz D, Kotzur T, McLennan A, Ghali A, Ahmad F, et al.

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):36-44. PMID: 39935986

Introduction: Pre- and postoperative optimization remains a complex process impacted by various demographic factors. Our study aims to identify and describe those demographic factors associated with poor outcomes after spinal...

Radiographic Features of Spinal Meningioma and Schwannoma: A Novel Specific Feature-Ginkgo Leaf Sign

Toda Y, Miyazaki M, Kobayashi T, Egashira Y, Lee D, Hamanaka H, et al.

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):45-50. PMID: 39935985

Introduction: Meningiomas and schwannomas are common intradural-extramedullary spinal tumors. Because of their different origins, they necessitate different surgical procedures, which makes preoperative diagnosis important. Methods: In this study, clinical and...

Difference of Disk Degeneration and Segmental Range of Motion due to Lumbar Disk Level among Age and Gender: 639 Asymptomatic Volunteer Data

Yamada T, Nakashima H, Machino M, Matsuyama Y, Kato F, Yukawa Y

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):87-92. PMID: 39935984

Introduction: There is limited evidence between lumbar disk degeneration and normal lumbar segmental range of motions (SRMs), because previous studies were skewed by age and lacked large cohort of asymptomatic...

Fifth Lumbar Vertebral Shape in Early-Stage Lumbar Spondylolysis: Three-Dimensional Bone Morphology Analysis Using Homologous Models

Yamane Y, Toda H, Katayose M

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2025 Feb; 9(1):78-86. PMID: 39935983

Introduction: Fifth lumbar (L5) vertebral morphology contributes to spondylolysis. However, there are no comprehensive examinations of the three-dimensional vertebral shape in early-stage cases. This study aimed to investigate the overall...

Higher Levels of Postoperative Mobility and Activity as Measured by the AM-PAC 6 Clicks Instrument Are Associated with Improved Outcomes after Lumbar Fusion
