OBJECTIVE: Postoperative recovery following lumbar fusion surgery in patients aged 75 years and older often requires a prolonged length of stay (PLOS) in the hospital. Accurately predicting the risk of PLOS and assessing its risk factors for preopera...
OBJECTIVE: Mechanical complications are a vexing occurrence after adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery. While achieving ideal spinal alignment in ASD surgery is critical, alignment alone may not fully explain all mechanical complications. The authors...
OBJECTIVE: Software engineering innovations have led to the development of virtual surgical planning software (VSPS) for deformity correction. VSPS uses calibrated radiographs and machine learning predictive models to simulate postoperative spinopelv...
The existing assessment of adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) risk after lumbar fusion surgery focuses on a single type of clinical information or imaging manifestations. In the early stages, it is difficult to show obvious degeneration characterist...

With the continuous advances in modern medical technology and equipment,minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is widely applied in clinical practice.Ultrasound (US) as a real-time,portable,and radiation-free medical imaging method can be used for the intr...
OBJECTIVE: Robot-assisted pedicle screw placement in spinal fusion has been well studied. However, few studies have evaluated robot-assisted sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fusion. The aim of this study was to compare surgical characteristics, accuracy, and c...
