Minimally invasive surgery offers a promising approach to correct severe spinal deformities, potentially reducing complications associated with traditional open procedures for thoracolumbar spinal deformities.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Neurosurgery
  • Spine Surgery

Background:

  • Contemporary management of thoracolumbar spinal deformities has advanced with improved fixation, osteotomy, and reduction techniques.
  • Open posterior approaches for long-segment spinal fixation are associated with high complication rates, including infection and blood loss, due to extensive soft tissue disruption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the preliminary experience and potential benefits of using minimally invasive techniques for long-segment internal fixation in treating spinal deformities.

Main Methods:

  • Review of preliminary clinical experience with minimally invasive techniques for spinal deformity correction.
  • Focus on long-segment internal fixation via minimally invasive approaches.

Main Results:
