MIS Spine Surgery: Complications and Avoidance Lessons Learned
• Nuvasive • Orthofix • Medtronic • K2m
• • Retrospective study Cobb angle: • 25 patients (2-8 levels) – Preop 21.1 ° (10 – 48 ° ) Showed inadequately restored sagittal balance on 1/3 of • f/u mean 11 months (3-20) – Post op 6.4 ° (1 – 24 ° ). cases. • 2 stages • VAS: 5.7 impr. – Preop 8.1 • MIS techniques: – Post op 2.4 – Lateral (XLIF™ ) – Presacral (AxiaLIF™) • ODI impr 23.7% – Mini-open TLIF – Perc. pedicle screw • No pseudoarthrosis – Lat plate • Sagittal balance

Strategies to Prevent/Manage Complications 1. Better understanding of ASD 2. High PI worst MIS enemy 3. Limitations of MIS techniques 4. Stage 5. Interspace vacuum air 6. Facet Hypertrophy 7. Rotational component 8. Fractional Curve 9. Importance of L5/S1 10. Anterior column manipulaiton 11. In situ bending 12. ALIF better than TLIF
• Significant challenges exist, as the surgical technique does not yet allow for all correction maneuvers used in open surgery. • MIS is not better than OPEN Techniques. IT IS DIFFERENT
