Full Description
This books presents the state-of-the-art of lumbar dynamic spine stabilization, a set of surgical techniques designed to overcome the limits of fusion surgery, such as mortality and morbidity, especially in elderly people and chronic instability.
The opening chapters explore the philosophy and rationale of dynamic stabilization and present its evolution over the past two decades. It also analyzes the differences with other non-fusion systems such as disc prostheses, interspinous devices, facet replacement, and other soft or semi-rigid stabilization systems.
Readers discover the biomechanics, indications, technical pearls and pitfalls, as well as the clinical results and complications of this technical innovation. They further learn its application in special deformities, e.g. idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents which have not reached the bone growth age, as well as its increased success rate in lumbar disc herniation surgery. Insights into its application at the initial stage of degeneration, preparing the ground for regeneration, complement the book.
Written by an international panel of experts, this timely and up-to-date guide offers an excellent source of knowledge and a valuable aid to clinical practice for orthopedic surgeons and neurosurgeons alike.
