Additional Operations Following Sacroiliac Joint Fusions: A Minimum 3-year Follow-up Cohort Study of Patients Operated for Chronic Sacroiliac Joint Pain.

Study Design: A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected registry data.

Objective: To examine the subsequent pattern of surgeries and outcome of sacroiliac joint fusions (SJF) in patients previously operated in the lumbar spine as well as those scheduled for primary SJF.

Summary Of Background Data: Patients with SI joint pain often have a history of previous back surgery, but it is unclear how often patients require back surgery after SI-joint fusion.

Translation and validation of the Swedish version of the early-onset scoliosis 24-item questionnaire.

Purpose: This study aimed to translate and validate the Early-Onset Scoliosis 24-Item Questionnaire (EOSQ-24) into Swedish.

Methods: Following international guidelines, the EOSQ-24 was double forward translated by independent translators, reviewed by experts, and distributed to caregivers. A single back translation was performed, and the Swedish version was finalized.

Traumatic Vertebral Artery Injury After Subaxial Cervical Spine Injuries: Incidence, Risk Factors, and Long-Term Outcomes: A Population-Based Cohort Study.

Background And Objectives: Vertebral artery injury (VAI) because of traumatic subaxial cervical spine injury is a rare but potentially devastating condition as it could lead to stroke. The aim of this study was to examine the incidence, risk factors, outcomes, and radiographic predictors of VAI in patients surgically treated for subaxial cervical spine injuries at a tertiary care trauma center.

Methods: This is a retrospective population-based cohort study, including all patients surgically treated for traumatic subaxial cervical spine injuries at the study center between 2006 and 2018.

1-year data on patient-reported outcome is enough after surgery for degenerative cervical myelopathy: a cohort study from the Swedish Spine register.

Background And Purpose:  Degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) is the most common cause of spinal cord dysfunction in adults. Repeated follow-ups after surgery are resource consuming. The aim was to examine whether patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) change after the first year.
