Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) after durotomy in elective spine surgery, though rare, can pose a significant risk to patient outcomes. Spine surgeries bear a risk of dural tears (DT) with potential of postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leakage (PCSFL). Excessive PCSFL can precipitate a decrease in intracranial pressure, potentially leading to ICH. Literature on ICH as a postoperative complication is scarce. The aim was to assess the incidence and risk factors of ICH in patients undergoing elective spine surgery.

A Cadaver Study: The Relationship of Vital Organs of the Thoracolumbar Junction During a far Lateral Approach Using a T-12 Corpectomy Model.

Symptomatic thoracic disc herniations (TDH) are relatively rare and can be discovered incidentally on neuroimaging. Surgical interventions for TDH represent only 4 % of all surgeries performed for intervertebral disc pathologies, which are most commonly indicated for myelopathy and radiculopathy. Given the absence of publications on rates of readmissions following hospitalization for TDH, we aim to establish baseline metrics for the 90-day all-cause readmission rates and pertinent risk factors.
