Lateral Access Surgery for the Thoracolumbar Spine
e advent of minimally invasive surgery has provided surgeons and patients the same good treatment alternatives. Within the �eld of spine surgery, techniques for lumbar interbody arthrodesis have shown enormous evolution. e retroperitoneal transpsoas lateral approach for the lumbar spine has revolutionized how interbody fusions can be performed more safely and with signi�cantly less morbidity....

متن کاملGiant Chordoma of the Thoracolumbar Spine
Chordomas are rare tumors from primitive notochord. They are usually located at sacrococcygeal region when it affects the spine. We present a case of giant chordoma in the thoracolumbar spine in Peru. A 43-year-old woman came to the hospital in Huanuco due to back pain and sensorymotor alterations in the lower limbs. Imaging confirmed an unresectable tumor involving the spine. Two years later, ...
متن کاملResearch of thoracolumbar spine lateral vascular anatomy and imaging.
This study introduces an anatomical basis for surgeries such as thoracoscope-assisted thoracolumbar spinal anterior interbody fusion in terms of image observing and corpse specimen anatomising. The observation of the 3-dimensional computed tomography (CT) image indicates that segmental arteries are visible and run in the central supersulcus of the corresponding vertebral body's side, while the ...
متن کاملMotor evoked potentials for femoral nerve protection in transpsoas lateral access surgery of the spine.
Detecting potential intraoperative injuries to the femoral nerve should be the main goal of neuromonitoring of lateral lumber interbody fusion (LLIF) procedures. We propose a theory and technique to utilize motor evoked potentials (MEPs) to protect the femoral nerve (a peripheral nerve), which is at risk in LLIF procedures. MEPs have been advocated and widely used for monitoring spinal cord fun...
