Imaging assessment of pars interarticularis injury in young athletes with back pain: current concepts and imaging methodsArgoSpine News & Journal - Tập 23 - Trang 15-18 - 2011

Injury of the pars interarticularis is a common cause of low back pain, particularly in adolescent athletes. It is a spectrum of disease where repetitive bone stress and micro-trauma create an unstable fracture of the pars interarticularis (spondylolysis) that can ultimately lead to slippage of one vertebral body on another (spondylolisthesis). Radiographs are typically the initial study performed...... hiện toàn bộ
En-bloc spondylectomy for thoracolumbar primary tumours and solitary metastases of the spineArgoSpine News & Journal - Tập 23 - Trang 163-170 - 2011

Total en-bloc spondylectomy (TES) offered a new therapeutic approach by applying the radical oncosurgical concepts of Enneking’s compartment-oriented resections to the thoracolumbar spine. It thereby demonstrated encouraging oncosurgical results by achieving marginal to wide resection margins in the treatment of primary spinal tumours and solitary spinal metastases of biologically favourable tumou...... hiện toàn bộ
Fulcrum bending radiograph and its applicationsArgoSpine News & Journal - Tập 24 - Trang 73-77 - 2012
Wai-Yuen Cheung, K. D. K. Luk
Assessing flexibility of the deformity has become an integral part of scoliosis management. The fulcrum bending radiograph has advantages over other kinds of flexibility radiographs. It is useful for assessing the flexibility of scoliosis deformity, comparing the efficacy of scoliosis correction with different instruments or surgical strategies, predicting the amount of scoliosis correction with s...... hiện toàn bộ
