For chronic low back pain, the causal mechanisms between pathological features from imaging and patient symptoms are unclear. For instance, disc herniations can often be present without symptoms.

Individual characteristics can influence outcomes after injury. Our previous work in individuals with early-acute low back pain (LBP) identified subgroups (clusters) with specific biopsychosocial features that recovered poorly or well by 6 months.

There are limited treatments for discogenic low back pain. Intradiscal injections of biologic agents such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or stem cells (SC) are theorized to have regenerative properties and have gained increasing interest as a possible treatment, but the evidence supporting their use in clinical practice is not yet well-defined.

A screw-rod system is the most widely used technique for atlantoaxial instability (AAI). However, neglecting anomalies of the vertebral artery and axis could lead to fatal complications. Whether or not the presence of AAI is associated with a more complicated anatomy for instrumentation is unclear.

Previous studies have called into question the safety of using rhBMP-2 in anterior cervical fusion due to the possibility of airway compromise and dysphagia. A retrospective chart review identified a significant increase in the severity of dysphagia after II-level ACDF with rhBMP-2 compared to patients who did not receive rhBMP-2. To date, this topic has not been studied prospectively.

Excessive use of postoperative imaging after lumbar surgery has been documented, becoming a target for cutting costs. This must be balanced with the patient's need for information and allay their postoperative concerns.

The increasing volume of free-text notes available in electronic health records has created an opportunity for natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to mine this unstructured data in order to detect and predict adverse outcomes. Given the volume and diversity of documentation available in spine surgery, it remains unclear which types of documentation offer the greatest value for prediction of adverse outcomes.

Lumbar disc replacement (LDR) is a motion sparing procedure for degenerative disc disease. When compared to lumbar fusion, this procedure may reduce complications, reoperations, operative time, and length of stay.

Traditionally, a nonoperative approach has been favored for elderly patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis due to a perceived higher risk of morbidity with surgery. However, most studies have used an arbitrary age cut-off to define “elderly” and this research has yielded conflicting results.

The transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) technique is an effective alternative to traditional anterior and posterior approaches to the lumbar spine; however, nerve injuries are the most reported postoperative complication. Commonly used strategies to avoid nerve injury (eg, limiting retraction duration) have not been effective in detecting or preventing femoral nerve injuries.

Since the study of Thompson, et al in 2005, use of dual-growing rod constructs have become the gold standard for operative treatment in early-onset scoliosis. However, use of dual-growing rod constructs may not be possible, due to patient size and the type, location and severity of the spinal deformity.

Most osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) are treated conservatively; however, in some patients, progressive vertebral body collapse leads to spinal deformity and cord compression. These complications are strongly associated with impaired performance activities of daily living and a poor quality of life.
