Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how spinopelvic parameters and global spine morphology affect fracture location, fracture type, and neurological outcomes in patients with thoracolumbar trauma.
- After reviewing 2,896 patients, 514 were selected based on specific criteria; data such as age, injury mechanism, and body type were collected, differentiating between high pelvic incidence (PI) and low PI patients.
- Results revealed that high PI patients had fewer lower lumbar spine fractures than low PI patients, with fall from height being a major cause of neurological deficits, especially among those with certain types of injuries.
Background: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) has been associated with improved perioperative outcomes after thoracic surgery; however, the impact on long-term opioid use remains unknown. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effects of ERAS on long-term opioid use.
Methods: Patients who underwent pulmonary resection were identified from a prospectively maintained database and linked to the regional prescription drug monitoring program.
Objective: To determine the financial and clinical impact of a standardized, multidisciplinary team for surgical clearance and optimization in geriatric hip fracture patients.
Design: Retrospective case series.
Setting: Level-1 trauma center.
C1-C2 Wiring With Timed Self-Obsolescence for Complex C2 Body Fracture.

Background And Importance: Fractures of C2 are typically managed nonoperatively with good rates of healing. Management decisions are complicated, however, when there are additional fractures in the axis possibly leading to increased instability. Additionally, the techniques used for treating these unstable axis fractures can have either significant complications or permanent loss of range of motion.

Although preoperative radiation has been used for heterotopic ossification prophylaxis in the THA population, to our knowledge, no studies have compared preoperative and postoperative radiation therapy in the acetabular fracture population.
Questions/purposes: We determined whether heterotopic ossification frequency and severity were different between patients with acetabular fracture treated with prophylactic radiation therapy preoperatively and postoperatively.
Objective: To present clinical, radiographic, and functional outcomes in patients 70 years and older with a protrusio-type acetabulum fracture.
Design: Retrospective case series.
Setting: Two level 1 trauma centers.
