Thoracic transforaminal epidural steroid injection for management of thoracic spine pain: A multicenter cross-sectional study of short-term outcomes Open
This is the largest series reporting outcomes from thoracic TFESI to date. Overall, the observed success rate was low compared to known success rates associated with TFESI for the treatment of pain at cervical and lumbar spinal regions.

One surgeon’s learning curve with single position lateral lumbar interbody fusion: perioperative outcomes and complications Open
In SP LLIF with PPSF, case number correlated with decreased operative time, but not complications. The surgeon's prior experience with dual position (DP) LLIF likely contributed to the minimal learning curve observed. Surgeons adopting SP …

Extensor digitorum brevis bulk and associations with fibular motor nerve conduction amplitude Open
Introduction Prior work demonstrates that fibular compound motor action potential (CMAP) amplitude <4.0 mV predicts impairment of ankle proprioceptive precision and increased fall risk. Extensor digitorum brevis (EDB) inspection may presen…

Computer-assisted surgical navigation is associated with an increased risk of neurological complications: a review of 67,264 posterolateral lumbar fusion cases Open
Although the overall risk of neurological complications following PLFs is low, the use of NAV only was associated with an increased risk of neurological complications. No differences were observed in the rates of pedicle screw revision amo…
View article: Cost-effectiveness of Operative Versus Non-operative Management of Acute Achilles Tendon Ruptures
Cost-effectiveness of Operative Versus Non-operative Management of Acute Achilles Tendon Ruptures Open
Background The management of acute Achilles tendon ruptures is controversial, and most injuries are treated with surgery in the USA. The cost utility of operative versus non-operative treatment of acute Achilles tendon injury is unclear. Q…

Decreased estimated blood loss in lateral trans-psoas versus anterior approach to lumbar interbody fusion for degenerative spondylolisthesis Open
The lateral trans-psoas approach is associated with diminished blood loss compared to the anterior approach in the treatment of degenerative spondylolisthesis. We were unable to detect differences in radiographic outcomes, complication rat…
