Join us on Monday, July 1st at 8 pm EST for the Och Spine Grand Rounds online webinar. I will be giving a talk on Preoperative Alignment planning for Spinal Deformity Surgery Register here: nyph.zoom.us/webinar/registe… #scoliosis #spinaldeformity

Case 1, Part 3: For our patient with worsening #spondylolisthesis, We chose L3-S1/ilium reconstruction with TLIF L4-S1. Great news! She can now stand upright without needing a walker. 🌟🩺 #SpineSurgery #BackPainRecovery #MedicalCommunity

Case 1, Part 2: The patient had a #Vertiflex procedure done elsewhere; symptoms worsened, now can't stand upright, uses walker. Thoughts on her treatment so far? Next steps? #MedTwitter #Orthopedics #orthopedicsurgery #neurosurgery #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosis

55F with back pain and neurogenic claudication. Despite PT and epidural injections, relief is temporary. Difficulty walking long distances due to pain. What treatment would you offer next? #MedTwitter #SpineHealth #NeurogenicClaudication #spine

#Preop optimization of adult patients undergoing surgery for #scoliosis, #kyphosis, or #spinaldeformity is crucial for the best outcomes.Our recent publication in #spine provides practical steps for physicians to optimize these patients. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/3767… #spinehealth

Had a fantastic time presenting at the AO #Spine Global Spine Congress in Bangkok last week! 🎤 It's always a pleasure to share knowledge and collaborate with brilliant minds. Also thrilled to continue our work with the Spine Deformity Knowledge Forum. #MedTwitter #Orthopedics

Thrilled to share that our research team showcased their hard work through multiple presentations at the IMAST meeting! 🌟 Each presentation highlighted our commitment to advancing #spine care through innovative research. Proud of our team’s efforts and the impact we’re making!

Severe malalignment case: Performed T12-S1/Pelvis posterior instrumentation, TLIF at L5-S1 & L5 PSO. No anterior approach on vascular team's advice. Patient now stands upright & grateful. #SpineSurgery #MedTwitter #scoliosis #flatback #HarringtonRods #ScoliosisWarrior

I am honored to announce my inclusion as one of the top 3% Spine Research All-Stars for 2024! avantgardehealth.com/best-su… #HealthcareResearchAllStars #neurosurgery #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosis #scoliosissurgeon #spinedeformity #spinaldeformity #idiopathicscoliosis

50s patient with severe malalignment. How would you treat this surgically? Nnee compensation in coronal and sagittal planes. Options: Multisegment instrumentation, TLIF/ALIF/OLIF, PSO, refer to another surgeon? Thoughts? #neurosurgery #spine #scoliosis #flatback #harringtonrods

Don't miss the Och Spine Grand Rounds webinar on April 1st at 8 PM EST. Dr. Dan Riew of Och Spine Cornell will delve into Tips and Tricks for Anterior #CervicalSpine Surgery. A must-attend for #spine surgeons! nyph.zoom.us/webinar/registe… #spinehealth #neurosurgery #orthopedics

It was great attending the Pediatric Spinal Deformity on the Cutting Edge in Florida with my partner and mentor @LLenkeMD Always enlightening to exchange ideas with leaders in the field #scoliosis #kyphosis #spinaldeformity

Is AI good at deciphering spinal intricacies? 🤔 #MedTwitter, take a look at this AI-rendered spine image. While it mimics the spine from a distance, the devil's in the details - and they're off. Let's focus on enhancing data integrity for better outcomes. #AI #spine

Final Tip #6 for Spine Surgeons : Embrace tactile feedback in #Robotics. Tap, don't push the drill. Start with high-speed bur for 1cm depth, then switch to low-speed tap. Unsure? Trust your feel & check landmark Share your tips! #neurosurgery #spine #scoliosis #kyphosis

Tip #5 for #Spine Surgeons: Master #Robotics with anatomy in mind! For S2AI screws, clear bone that obstructs the trajectory. Be mindful of deep L5/S1 and medial PSIS - adjust or remove part of PSIS. And watch those sloped transverse processes in the thoracic spine! #scoliosis
