NEW Study: Longer Spine Surgery, Faster Complications?

According to a National Institutes of Health (NIH) study, adult spinal deformity develops in as many as 68% of healthy adults over the age of 65¹. With that in mind, a multicenter team set out to establish standardized values for the rates of complications by type of surgery performed. Their work, “Benchmark Values for Construct Survival and Complications by Type of ASD Surgery,” was published in the September 2024 edition of Spine.
