Are you staying up-to-date on the latest advancements in motion preservation technologies? If not, the latest issue of Neurosurgery Clinics guest edited by Domagoj Coric is a must-read.
With state-of-the-art indications, techniques, devices, complications, and evidence-based methods, this issue covers a vast range of topics related to motion preserving technologies in both the cervical and lumbar spines. The authors provide a critical evaluation of a variety of different types of devices, both FDA approved and experimental, as well as surgical techniques utilized for motion preservation in spinal surgery.
One of the most interesting topics in this issue is the debate between cervical spine surgery: arthroplasty versus fusion versus posterior foraminotomy. Total disc replacement offers a surgical alternative to fusion for patients with isolated disc pathology, while posterior foraminotomy remains the gold standard for patients with neuroforaminal stenosis. The authors provide a detailed analysis of these options and each technique’s potential benefits and drawbacks.
For those who are unfamiliar with total disc replacement, the issue offers an excellent introduction to the topic. Cervical total disc replacement includes FDA-approved devices and novel devices in off-label and expanded indications. Furthermore, this issue provides a clear explanation of the potential complications of cervical total disc replacement and how to avoid them.
Lumbar total disc replacement is also a vital topic addressed in this issue. This technique is gaining popularity as a treatment alternative to lumbar fusion for patients with isolated disc pathology. The authors provide the latest information on current usage and the outcomes of this technique.
Posterior lumbar facet replacement and arthroplasty is another topic that this issue covers. It is an interesting topic for those who want to learn more about new techniques for motion preservation.
This issue is an excellent resource for neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, and other healthcare professionals who operate on patients with spinal pathology. It provides actionable insights for clinical practice with an up-to-the-minute summary of current industry developments.
