Women represent a small minority of practicing orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons, with spine surgery having a disproportionately low representation relative to other subspecialties. Previous efforts have attempted to characterize gender patterns in authorship amongst select spine journals. However, no study to our knowledge has done a comprehensive assessment of the influence of gender on academic productivity, impact, and leadership amongst academic spine faculty.

Inclusion of the cervicothoracic junction (CTJ) during decision-making regarding the surgical level of multilevel posterior cervical fusion (PCF) surgery remains the subject of debate, largely due to a lack of studies on the topic.

The posterior cervical approach is a very popular surgical procedure. Because of the slope-shaped laminae, a suitable landmark for laminectomy, laminoplasty, and pedicle screw placement does not exist.

Previous research on rates of spinal detection showed a low frequency of patients (5%) experienced delays and additional screening going through airport security. With continuous technology advances in screenings and the rise in cobalt chrome implantation, updated data on patient experiences was needed.

Lumbar canal stenosis due to degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis is one of the most common indications for lumbar spinal surgery. However, from a long-term perspective, it is still unclear which of these procedures should be performed: decompression, decompression plus fusion, or decompression plus stabilization.

Lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis is a relatively common pathology, and surgical treatment is an option in selected cases. The common use of anterior column support by interbody fusion (IBF) has not been adequately studied.

Health can impact work performance through absenteeism, time spent away from work, and presenteeism, inhibited at-work performance. Low back pain is common and costly, both in terms of direct medical expenditures and indirect reduced work performance.

In patients with lumbar spinal stenosis, it is crucial for clinicians to identify all symptomatic levels. Prior studies have demonstrated that CT myelography has a greater sensitivity in revealing stenosis (94.4%) compared to MRI (75.9%). However, this is an invasive test that should be used judiciously. No study has identified subgroups of patients that do or do not benefit from this additional invasive testing.

Low back pain is a major cause of morbidity and disability worldwide and is responsible for vast societal impact. Rates of surgical intervention for lumbar spine disorders continue to rise but poor outcomes remain common. Understanding how the social determinants of health (SDH) influence spinal surgical outcomes stands to inform appropriately tailored care practices and lead to better patient outcomes.

Recently, the number of patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) who present with a coexisting spinal deformity such as degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) and scoliosis (DLS) has been increasing. Lumbar decompression without fusion can lead to a reactive improvement in the lumbar and sagittal spinopelvic alignment, even if a sagittal imbalance exists preoperatively. However, the mid- to long-term impact of the coexistence of DS and DLS on the change in sagittal spinopelvic alignment and clinical outcomes after decompression surgery remains unknown.

Spinal infection (SI) is a life-threatening condition and its treatment remains challenging. Recent studies have supported early and aggressive surgery, but mortality still reaches 5% to 10% and it remains unclear, if an aggressive surgical strategy also applies for severely sick patients.

With improvements in adjuvant radiotherapy and minimally invasive surgical techniques, separation surgery has become the default surgical intervention for spine metastases at many centers. However, it is unclear if there is clinical benefit from anterior column resection in addition to simple epidural debulking prior to stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).

Lower back pain (LBP) is the most common orthopedic complaint in the United States. Physical therapy is recommended as a conservative, non-pharmacological intervention for LBP. While it is thought that skill level and effectiveness of physical therapists differ, there is little understanding regarding characteristics that distinguish high and low performing physical therapists.

Intraoperative detection of a pedicle wall breach implicitly reduces surgical risk, but the reliability of intraoperative neuromonitoring has been contested. Hydroxyapatite (HA) has been promulgated to increase pedicle screw resistance and negatively influence the accuracy of electromyography.
