Instrumented L5-S1 interbody graft with IFUSE implant using the reverse Bohlman technique
We present the case of a 38-year-old woman with L5S1 interbody pseudarthrosis after posterior fixation for grade 2 L5-S1 spondylolisthesis with isthmic lysis of L5, and that of a 69-year-old woman who underwent a posterior T4 fusion to the pelvis for degenerative scoliosis. Both required a trans-lumbosacral instrumented fusion via an anterior approach using the reverse Bohlman technique. Surgical technique was described.RESULTS: There were no perioperative or postoperative complications. At 6 months, the patients reported a decrease in lumbar and radicular symptomatology. There were no infectious, neurological or vascular ...

Primary intradural Extraosseous Ewing's sarcoma of the cauda equina: a Case Report and Literature Review
We report a case of a 66-year-old male who presented with a 2-month history of low back pain and bilateral S1 sciatica, with acute sphincter dysfunction. Imaging studies revealed an intradural extramedullary lesion in the cauda equina spanning from level L4 to S1. The patient underwent partial removal of the intradural lesion. Histopathological examination showed the presence of small round cells, which were consistent with Ewing Sarcoma. The patient was then treated with targeted radiation therapy and chemotherapy. The rarity of IEES in this specific location underscores the significance of evaluating and managing patient...

Fractured cervical spine, dissected vertebral artery, and life-threatening stroke: A challenging case report and literature review
CONCLUSION: Rapid management of patients with dramatic clinical presentation can lead to full recovery. Implications include a systematic screening of blunt trauma VAI through computed tomography angiography when dealing with high-risk cervical spine fractures; patients harboring both a cervical spine fracture and a VAI must be transferred to a tertiary referral hospital able to deal both with strokes and cervical spine surgery to ensure responsiveness in case of stroke.PMID:38621474 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2024.101561 (Source: Neuro-Chirurgie)

Risk factors for bone cement dislodgement following balloon kyphoplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture
CONCLUSION: The incidence of bone cement dislodgement in our study was 6.3%. This study underscores the importance of using preoperative radiologic parameters to predict the risk of bone cement dislodgement following balloon kyphoplasty.PMID:38614310 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2024.101559 (Source: Neuro-Chirurgie)

An updated classification of the anatomical variations of the internal iliac venous drainage system: Surgical implications for anterior lumbar spinal approaches
CONCLUSIONS: Variations of the iliac veins are frequent, and contrary to what one might think, and even if they can represent an anatomical trap during surgery, certain variations do not limit anterior lumbar spine surgery and are not more associated with vascular complications. Nevertheless, these anatomical variations must be known before any advanced pelvic surgery. Depending on their distribution, level L5-S1 is more suitable for ALIF, level L4-L5 for OLIF approaches.PMID:38614311 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2024.101558 (Source: Neuro-Chirurgie)

Surgical management of tumors of the cervical spine and craniovertebral junction involving the vertebral artery: A narrative review
CONCLUSION: Tumors located at the CVJ and the cervical spine intimately involved with the VA, pose a surgical challenge and increase the risk of incomplete removal of the lesion. Detailed knowledge of the patient-specific anatomy and a targeted pre-operative work-up enable optimal planning of surgical approach and management of the VA, thereby reducing surgical risks and improving extent of resection.PMID:38552591 | DOI:10.1016/j.neuchi.2024.101550 (Source: Neuro-Chirurgie)
