We report a series of epidural hematomas which cause neurologic deterioration after spinal surgery, and have taken risk factors and prognostic factors into consideration. We retrospectively reviewed the database of 3720 cases of spine operation in a single institute over 7 years (1998 April- 2005 July). Nine patients who demonstrated neurologic deterioration after surgery and required surgical decompression were identified. Factors postulated to increase the postoperative epidural hematoma and t

Occurrence of HO is an inevitable postoperative complication after cervical ADR. The occurrence rate of HO was higher than our expectation. Moreover, definite differences in occurrence rate according to the prosthesis type were identified by this study.

BACKGROUND: Spinal cord glioma grade IV is a rare, diffuse midline glioma. H3 K27M-mutant was classified in a different entity in the 2016 World Health Organization (WHO) classification recently. No reports about prognosis of spinal cord glioma grade IV are available yet. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the prognostic factors for spinal cord glioma grade IV. METHODS: Twenty-five patients with spinal cord glioma of grade IV who underwent surgery in a single institute were selected. All grade IV spinal cord

In this study, we designed and fabricated a multilayered fibrous scaffold capable of the controlled release of multiple growth factors for sciatic nerve regeneration in rats. The scaffold consists of three layers prepared by sequential electrospinning, where the first layer is fabricated using polycaprolactone (PCL)-aligned electrospun nanofibers for the attachment and differentiation of cells toward the direction of the sciatic nerve. The second and third layers are fabricated using poly(lactic

use of the da Vinci Surgical System to perform an anterior spinal procedure was shown to be safe and effective in a swine animal model. The utilization of this advanced technology shows promise to reduce the incidence of complications compared with other approaches. It requires further testing in animal models and cadavers, along with serial comparisons to current procedures.
