Synopsis

Minimally invasive spinal surgery has made tremendous strides in the past
decade, with advances in instrumentation and techniques rapidly changing the
scope of these procedures. Highlighted by nearly 650 high-quality images, this
is the first text to comprehensively review the critical aspects and
developments in the field. It features in-depth guidelines and approaches for
performing cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine surgery; percutaneous
procedures; and image-guided and robotic surgery. You will also find key
discussions of minimally invasive interbody fusion, thoracic discectomy, trauma
stabilization, lumbar decompression, tumor resection, and more.

With
contributions from leading surgeons throughout the country, this text provides a
solid foundation in minimally invasive spinal techniques. For all neurosurgeons,
orthopedic surgeons, and spinal surgeons, it is both a useful tool and an
educational resource for integrating these operative methods into
practice.
