and return to work in multilevel lumbar spinal fusion procedures.Efforts to ensure higher fusion success rates in multilevel procedures have resulted in the use of surgical adjuncts, such as spinal instrumentation systems and electrical stimulation.Patients were assessed 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 or ...

multilevel pathology can be challenging, especially in the presence of significant spinal stenosis. Three-level anterior decompression and fusion are associated with higher nonunion
with specific biomechanical parameters, reduces the risk of adjacent segment disease (ASD).Survival analysis of two non-randomised cohorts, with or without 'topping-off' (T/O or NoT/O), compared the risk of further surgery for ASD following multi-level posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF)....
An urgent MRI of her lumbar spine revealed a three-level hematoma extending from L2 to L5 dorsal epidural space (Fig. 1E–H). Consequently, surgical intervention using UBE technique was performed for decompressive laminectomy to evacuate the hematoma and relieve spinal cord compression(Fig. 1I–...

Postoperative complications included early graft displacement requiring reoperation (three patients), transient dysphagia (two patients), cerebrospinal fluid leak treated by lumbar drainage (three patients), myocardial infarction (two patients), and late graft fracture (one patient). One patient developed ...
