Purpose: A systematic review and meta-analysis for incidence and risk factors of new-onset sacroiliac joint pain (SIJP) after spinal surgery aimed to provide evidence-based medical references for its early prevention, timely intervention, and appropriate treatment.
Methodology: The protocol of the systematic review and meta-analysis was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Review (PROSPERO) with the PROSPERO ID (CRD42023463177). Relevant studies were searched to January 2024 from the databases of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, and the types of studies were cohort studies, case-control studies, and cross-sectional studies. Study quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) and the Cross-Sectional/Prevalence Study Quality recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Two authors conducted studies search, data extraction, and quality assessment independently. Meta-analyses were done using Stata 14.0 software.
Results: Twelve observational studies with 3,570 spinal surgery patients were included. Ten were case-control studies, one was a cross-sectional study, and another was a cohort study, all of which were of moderate quality and above. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the incidence of new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery was 9.40%; females, no. of surgical segments, fusion to the sacrum, and postoperative pelvic tilt (PT) were significantly associated with the new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery. Meta-analyses for preoperative and postoperative controls of spondylopelvic parameters showed that postoperative lumbar lordosis (LL) in the SIJP group and postoperative LL and sacral slope (SS) of patients in the NoSIJP group had significant differences from preoperative.
Conclusion: Available evidence suggests that an increased risk of new-onset SIJP after spinal surgery is associated with sex, multi-segmental surgery, fusion to the sacrum, and greater postoperative PT.

An 88-year-old male with a history of cervical spondylosis (status post laminectomy of C2-C3 and laminoplasty of C4-C5), chronic congestive heart failure (CHF), pulmonary embolism, and lumbar spinal stenosis presented to an outpatient sports medicine clinic with neck pain following a fall five days prior due to loss of balance. He reported pain on the left side worsened by movement and accompanied by neck "clicking." A physical exam showed severe limitation in cervical spine extension limited by pain and loss of lordotic curve and a neurologic exam demonstrated weakness in the left leg secondary to a previous back surgery.

Computed tomography (CT) is widely used for the diagnosis and surgical treatment of spinal pathologies, particularly for pedicle screw placement. However, CT's limitations, notably radiation exposure, necessitate the development of alternative imaging techniques. Synthetic CT (sCT), which generates CT-like images from existing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, offers a promising alternative to reduce radiation exposure.

Study Design: A prospective web-based survey.
Purpose: Although intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) is critical in spine surgery, its usage is largely based on the surgeon's discretion, and studies on its usage trends in Asia-Pacific countries are lacking. This study aimed to examine current trends in IONM usage in Asia-Pacific countries.

Background: Endovascular abdominal aneurysm repair (EVAR) offers a less invasive approach to treating abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) compared to open repair. However, EVAR is associated with higher rates of reintervention. This study investigates the early and mid-term outcomes of patients who underwent late open conversion including aneurysmorrhaphy after EVAR at our institution.
