Cortical Trajectory Screw Fixation in Lumbar Spine Surgery: A Review of the Existing Literature

Kun-Tae Kim et al.

Summary: The cortical bone trajectory (CBT) technique in posterior lumbar fusion surgery offers lower invasiveness and superior cortical bone contact, and has been widely utilized. Existing studies indicate that compared to pedicle screw (PS) fixation, the CBT screw fixation method shows better or similar outcomes.

Radiological and clinical outcomes of midline lumbar fusion on sagittal lumbar-pelvic parameters for degenerative lumbar diseases

Yue-Tian Wang et al.

Summary: Both short-segment MIDLF and MIS-TLIF have similar effects on improving sagittal lumbar-pelvic parameters in the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases, but MIDLF has a larger impact on pelvic parameters.

Learning curve for minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion: a systematic review

Yong Ahn et al.

Summary: Purpose: To discuss the cutoff point at which technical proficiency is achieved and ways to enhance the learning process for minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF). Methods: A systematic review was conducted to identify learning curve studies on MI-TLIF. Results: Nine studies were included, representing 753 cases. The most commonly used outcome measure was the operative time, with a cutoff point of 31.33 +/- 11.98 cases. Conclusion: The learning curve for MI-TLIF may vary depending on the outcome measures used, and the learning rate may be influenced by patient and technical factors. Careful interpretation of the learning curve and proficiency cutoff point is necessary.

Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery With Midline Cortical Bone Trajectory Screw Fixation for Lumbar Degenerative Disease in a Retrospective Study of 200 Patients

Sung Hyun Noh et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the clinical outcomes of midline lumbar interbody fusion in 200 patients with lumbar degenerative disease and found that all groups showed significantly improved clinical outcomes postoperatively. The fusion rate was highest in group 1 and lowest in group 4, with a complication rate of 8.5%, mainly involving adjacent segment disease.

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes After Transforaminal Interbody Fusion Using Cortical Bone Trajectory versus Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation

Keishi Maruo et al.

Summary: The CBT group had significantly lower numeric rating scale scores on postoperative days 3 and 7, as well as serum creatine kinase levels on postoperative days 1 and 3 compared to the PPS group (all P < 0.005). There were no significant intergroup differences in operation time and estimated blood loss. At postoperative 1 year, there were no significant differences in cage subsidence, screw loosening, and fusion rates between the CBT group and PPS group, and clinical outcomes were equivalent between the two groups.

Long-Term Outcome After Midline Lumbar Fusion for the Treatment of Lumbar Spine Instability Due to Degenerative Disease

Filip Samal et al.

Summary: Midline lumbar fusion (MIDLF) is a safe and effective surgical technique for treating lumbar spine instability, with significant relief of pain and improvement in daily life activities observed in long-term clinical study. The limited invasiveness of MIDLF contributes to better preservation of paravertebral muscles and enhanced postoperative spinal stability.

Risk Factors for Accidental Dural Tears in Spinal Surgery

Zeiad A. F. Alshameeri et al.

Summary: This study found that the incidence rate of accidental dural tears is 5.8% and is significantly associated with factors such as advancing age, revision surgery, and lumbar stenosis. Gender and obesity were not statistically significant factors in relation to the risk of accidental dural tears.
