The goal of this meta-analysis is to explore the overall efficacy as well as the safety of anterior versus posterior approach for the therapy of patients with multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy based on qualified studies.

Anterior versus posterior approach for the therapy of multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) is an important therapy for the management of refractory wounds. The aim of this retrospective preliminary study was to introduce a modified NPWT (m-NPWT) and compared the efficacy of it with conventional NPWT (c-NPWT) in the management of refractory wounds.A total of 127 patients with refractory wounds receiving the NPWT from January 2010 to October 2017 in our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. The demographics and clinical data were collected from medical records and compared between m-NPWT group and c-NPWT group.There were 65 patients in c-NPWT group and 62 patients in m-NPWT group. No significant difference was observed between 2 groups in antimicrobial use (P = .51), hospitalization time (P = .24), wound-healing rate (P = .44) or complication rate (P = .59). However, patients in m-NPWT group had shorter wound-healing time (24.82 vs 27.66 days, P < .01), less debridement times (1.23 vs 2.08, P < .01), less total cost (3743.93 vs 6344.33 yuan, P < .01) and higher satisfaction rate (56/62 vs 44/65, P = .02) compared to those in c-NPWT group.The m-NPWT technique was an efficient and safe alternative therapy for refractory wounds.

Many complications are associated with thoracic open decompression surgery, such as dural tears and neurological deficits. The clinical outcomes are also not satisfactory. Full-endoscopic decompression of the lumbar spinal canal has achieved satisfactory results for the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis. This surgery may be used for the treatment of thoracic ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) under local anesthesia. The aim of our study is to introduce the surgical techniques used for full-endoscopic decompression for thoracic OLF and to evaluate its safety and efficacy.

The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to explore the screw positioning accuracy, complications related to pedicle screw implantation, revision rate and radiation exposure between robot screw placement and traditional fluoroscopic screw placement.

Comparison of accuracy and safety between robot-assisted and conventional fluoroscope assisted placement of pedicle screws in thoracolumbar spine: A meta-analysis.

Refractory intercostal neuralgia is a troublesome disease with long treatment cycle and short-term therapeutic effects. No treatment modality has given effective pain relief. The authors present here a safe and effective endoscopic surgical option for refractory intercostal neuralgia.

Percutaneous Endoscopic Intercostal Neurectomy for Refractory Intercostal Neuralgia.

Symptomatic thoracic disc herniation is a challenge in spinal surgery, especially for cases with calcification. Traditional open operation has a high complication rate. The authors introduced a modified full-endoscopic transforaminal ventral decompression technique in this study and evaluated its imaging and clinical outcomes.

Robot-assisted pedicle screw placement is usually performed under general anesthesia to keep the body still. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of the robot-assisted technique under regional anesthesia with that of conventional fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous pedicle screw placement under general anesthesia in minimally invasive lumbar fusion surgery.
