Purpose: A retrospective study was conducted to clarify the risk factors of postoperative sacroiliac joint pain (SIJP) for posterior open lumbar surgery.

Patients And Methods: A total of 472 patients who underwent posterior lumbar surgery between January 2011 and December 2014 were included in this analysis. We recorded basic characteristics, surgical characteristics, and SIJP information for each patient.

Results: The incidence of postoperative SIJP is 13.8% in our study. Comparison of the incidence of SIJP between diskectomy and posterior lumbar interbody fusion indicated that SIJP incidence tended to be higher in posterior lumbar interbody fusion patients (P = 0.029). Compared with the single-segment group, SIJP occurred more frequently in the multiple operative segments group (P = 0.025). Comparing the incidence of SIJP among different types of lumbar diseases, SIJP incidence is significantly higher in the lumbar stenosis group (P = 0035).

Conclusion: Lumbar fusion surgery and multiple operative segments are interdependent risk factors for the postoperative SIJP. The incidence of postoperative SIJP also increases in patients with lumbar stenosis compared with lumbar disk herniation and lumbar spondylolisthesis.

Background: Pseudarthrosis is a major complication after posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and transforaminal interbody fusion (TLIF), and its risk factors need to be identified. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the number of remaining teeth (NRT) and pseudarthrosis.

Methods: NRT, preoperative bone density of the proximal femur (percentages of young adult mean; % YAM), and preoperative procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) (μg/L) were retrospectively investigated in 63 patients (24 male and 39 female, mean age: 71.

The purpose of this study was to present the surgical technique of Unilateral Biportal Endoscopic (UBE) decompression combined with percutaneous pedicle screws for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures with secondary spinal stenosis. Thoracolumbar burst fracture is a common traumatic disease in spinal surgery. In the Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen (AO) classification of thoracolumbar fractures, Type A fractures have the highest incidence, accounting for about 70%, with A1 and A3 types being the most common.

Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a significant concern following posterior lumbar fusion surgery, leading to increased morbidity and healthcare costs. Accurate prediction of SSI risk is crucial for implementing preventive measures and improving patient outcomes. This study aimed to construct and validate a nomogram predictive model for assessing the risk of SSIs following posterior lumbar fusion surgery.

Introduction: The normative relationship between lumbar intervertebral disc space height (DSH) and neuroforaminal dimensions (NFD) has yet to be defined.

Research Question: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between lumbar DSH and NFD using computed tomography (CT), accounting for influences of patient demographic and anthropometric characteristics.

Materials And Methods: We analyzed CT imaging of 350 female and 350 male patients.
