Intraspinal solitary fibrous tumor (SFT)/hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is often misdiagnosed preoperatively as schwannoma or meningioma because its imaging characteristics are not well understood. As postoperative prognosis differs among the 3 lesions, predicting the probability of SFT/HPC preoperatively is essential.

Assessment of subaxial cervical facet injuries using the AO Spine Subaxial Cervical Spine Injury Classification System is based on CT scan findings. However, additional radiological evaluations are not directly considered. The aim of this study is to determine situations in which spine surgeons request additional radiological exams after a facet fracture.

The optimal surgical strategy for multilevel cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) with a negative kyphosis line (K-line (−)) remains controversial. We present a novel single-stage posterior approach that converts the K-line from negative to positive in patients with multilevel cervical OPLL, using a posterior thick cervical pedicle screw (CPS) system and report the procedure’s outcomes and feasibility.
