Objective: Malalignment following cervical spine deformity (CSD) surgery can negatively impact outcomes and increase complications. Despite the growing ability to plan alignment, it remains unclear whether preoperative goals are achieved with surgery. The objective of this study was to assess how good surgeons are at achieving their preoperative goal alignment following CSD surgery.

Robot-assisted surgery represents a significant innovation in reconstructive microsurgery, providing enhanced precision and reduced surgeon fatigue. This study examines the integration of robotic assistance in a series of 85 consecutive robot-assisted microsurgical (RAMS) operations. It aims to evaluate changes in the integration of RAMS during the implementation phase in a single institution.

Purpose Of Review: The operating room (OR) infrastructure and equipment such as gloves, were historically designed at a time when most surgeons were male. Today, there are increasing numbers of females in the OR and we should ensure that there is not a disproportionate risk of ergonomic stress and risk of work-related injuries. This review provides a perspective on the representation of female cardiac surgeons globally and examines the unique ergonomic challenges they may face.
