Abstract
Abstract
Background
The application of safety principles from the aviation industry to the operating room has offered hope in reducing surgical complications. This study aimed to assess the impact on major surgical complications of adding an aviation-based team training programme after checklist implementation.
Methods
A prospective parallel-group cluster trial was undertaken between September 2011 and March 2013. Operating room teams from 31 hospitals were assigned randomly to participate in a team training programme focused on major concepts of crew resource management and checklist utilization. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of any major adverse event, including death, during the hospital stay within the first 30 days after surgery. Using a difference-in-difference approach, the ratio of the odds ratios (ROR) was estimated to compare changes in surgical outcomes between intervention and control hospitals.
Results
Some 22 779 patients were enrolled, including 5934 before and 16 845 after team training implementation. The risk of major adverse events fell from 8·8 to 5·5 per cent in 16 intervention hospitals (adjusted odds ratio 0·57, 95 per cent c.i. 0·48 to 0·68; P < 0·001) and from 7·9 to 5·4 per cent in 15 control hospitals (odds ratio 0·64, 0·50 to 0·81; P < 0·001), resulting in the absence of difference between arms (ROR 0·90, 95 per cent c.i. 0·67 to 1·21; P = 0·474). Outcome trends revealed significant improvements among ten institutions, equally distributed across intervention and control hospitals.
Conclusion
Surgical outcomes improved substantially, with no difference between trial arms. Successful implementation of an aviation-based team training programme appears to require modification and adaptation of its principles in the context of the the surgical milieu.

Abstract
We studied the effect of impurity on the first order superconducting (SC) transition and the high field-low temperature (HFLT) SC state of CeCoIn5 by measuring the specific heat of CeCo(In1-xCdx)_{5} with x=0.0011, 0.0022, and 0.0033 and CeCo(In1-xHgx)_{5} with x=0.000 16, 0.000 32, and 0.000 48 at temperatures down to 0.1 K and fields up to 14 T. Cd substitution rapidly suppresses the crossover temperature T0, where the SC transition changes from second to first order, to T=0 K with x=0.0022 for H parallel[100], while it remains roughly constant up to x=0.0033 for H parallel[001]. The associated anomaly of the proposed FFLO state in Hg-doped samples is washed out by x=0.000 48, while remaining at the same temperature, indicating high sensitivity of that state to impurities. We interpret these results as supporting the nonmagnetic, possibly FFLO, origin of the HFLT state in CeCoIn5.

Abstract
The sheep model is frequently used for pre-clinical trials of spinal implants and vertebral interbody fusion devices. The lack of a well-documented multisegmental approach to the ventral aspect of the lumbar vertebrae has limited these trials to a posterior approach to the spine. A retroperitoneal approach to the sheep lumbar vertebrae was established and tested. One hundred and five sheep underwent the surgery. No major complications are reported. Major anatomical differences between sheep and humans were observed and documented. Anatomical variations in the sheep segmental vessel anatomy were also observed. Comprehensive knowledge of the retroperitoneal approach in sheep will facilitate pre-clinical studies testing ventral spinal implants or fusion techniques.

Abstract
Coronal decompensation following correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) has been reported to be due to the Cotrel-Dubousset rod derotation maneuver, or to a hypercorrection of the main thoracic curve. The treatment of such decompensation consists classically in observation, bracing, or extension of the instrumentation in the lumbar spine for a King 2 curve, or in the upper thoracic spine for a King 5 curve. As the postoperative decompensation is related to a hypercorrection of the main thoracic curve (relative to the compensatory curve), we hypothesized that if we were to "let the spine go" to some of its initial deformity, the balance of the patient would be improved. The purpose of the study was therefore to report on two cases where a postoperative imbalance following scoliosis surgery was successfully treated by decreasing the correction of the main thoracic curve. Two patients with AIS were found to have significant imbalance after scoliosis surgery. Both patients had been treated for a right thoracic curve (82 degrees and 85 degrees respectively) with an anterior release and posterior instrumentation. The revision surgery consisted for both patients in removing all the hooks between the end vertebrae of the main thoracic curve. This was done before the 3rd postoperative month for both patients. After revision surgery, the balance of both patients improved dramatically within a few weeks. The shoulders became almost level, and the trunk shift improved concomitantly. The Cobb angle increased by 8 degrees and 10 degrees, and the apical vertebra shifted to the right by 15 and 10 mm for the respective patients. These results were stable at 1-year follow-up. In the event of a persisting imbalance, we recommend, in selected cases, letting the spine go by removing all the implants located between the end vertebrae of the main thoracic curve. This adjustment or fine-tuning of the instrumentation should be done before the fusion takes place, and is best achieved with an instrumentation in which the hooks can be easily removed from the rod.

Abstract
Forty-one patients with thoracic adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) treated with only a posterior spine fusion using specialized pedicle hooks (SPH) (hooks augmented with 3.2-mm screws) at the apex of the curve were reviewed in order to assess the effectiveness of this correction method. Inclusion in the study group required a minimum of 2 years' follow-up and the same strategy of correction where the apical vertebrae (3 or 4 vertebrae on the concave side) were instrumented with SPH. The mean preoperative Cobb angle was corrected from 55 degrees (42 degrees -80 degrees) to 18 degrees (67%) postoperatively and to 23 degrees (58%) at the last follow-up (28-50 months) for a flexibility index of 46%. Apical vertebral translation was corrected to 70% at the last follow-up. Thoracic kyphosis remained unchanged, from 23 degrees to 26 degrees, and the lumbar lordosis went from -53 degrees to -59 degrees. The lumbar curve was corrected from 38 degrees to 18 degrees. Coronal balance improved from 10 to 1 mm; shoulder balance was improved from 15 to 5 mm. The rib hump was improved from an average of 30 mm preoperatively to 15 mm postoperatively, but only to 25 mm at the last follow-up (17% of correction). One case of a spastic bladder was observed postoperatively, which resolved completely after 8 months. Three patients had to have their instrumentation removed because of pain. There was no complication related to the use of the SPH. The authors conclude that apical correction with SPH allows effective scoliosis correction without spinal distraction and does not require supra- or infralaminar hook in the spinal canal.

Abstract
In severe congenital scoliosis, traction (whether with a halo or instrumental) is known to expose patients to neurologic complications. However, patients with restrictive lung disease may benefit from halo traction during the course of the surgical treatment. The goal of treatment of such deformities is, therefore, twofold: improvement of the respiratory function and avoidance of any neurologic complications. We report our technique to treat a 17-year-old girl with a multi-operated congenital scoliosis of 145 degrees and cor pulmonale. Pre-operative halo gravity traction improved her vital capacity from 560 c.c. to 700 c.c., but led to mild neurologic symptoms (clonus in the legs). To avoid further neurologic compromise, her first surgery consisted of posterior osteotomies and the implantation of two sliding rods connected to loose dominoes without any attempt at correction. Correction was then achieved over a 3-week period with a halofemoral traction. This allowed the two rods to slide while the neurologic status of the patient was monitored. Her definitive surgery consisted of locking the dominoes and the application of a contralateral rod. Satisfactory outcome was achieved for both correction of the deformity (without neurologic sequels) and improvement of her pulmonary function (1200 c.c. at 2 years). This technique using sliding rods in combination with halofemoral traction can be useful in high-risk, very severe congenital scoliosis.

Abstract
Fixation to the lumbosacral spine to correct pelvic obliquity in neuromuscular scoliosis has always remained a surgical challenge. The strongest fixation of the lumbosacral junction has been achieved with either a Galveston technique with rods or screws or with iliosacral screws. We have devised a new fixation system, in which iliosacral screws are combined with iliac screws. This is made possible by using the AO Universal Spine System with side opening hooks above and below the iliosacral screws and iliac screws below it. The whole sacropelvis is thus encompassed by a maximum width (MW) fixation, which gives an 'M' appearance on the pelvic radiographs and a 'W' appearance in the axial plane. We report on our surgical technique and the early results where such a technique was used. We feel that this new means of fixation (by combining the strongest fixation systems) is extremely solid and should be included in the wide armamentarium of sacropelvic fixation.

Abstract
Utilization of thoracic pedicle screws is controversial, especially in the treatment of scoliosis. We present a case of a 15-year-old girl seen 6 months after her initial surgery for scoliosis done elsewhere. She complained of persistent epigastric pain, tremor of the right foot at rest, and abnormal feelings in her legs. Clinical examination revealed mild weakness in the right lower extremity, a loss of thermoalgic discrimination, and a forward imbalance. A CT scan revealed at T8 and T10 that the right pedicle screws were misplaced by 4 mm in the spinal canal. At the time of the revision surgery the somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP) returned to normal after screw removal. The clinical symptoms resolved 1 month after the revision. The authors conclude that after pedicle instrumentation at the thoracic level a spinal cord compression should be looked for in case of subtle neurologic findings such as persistent abdominal pain, mild lower extremity weakness, tremor at rest, thermoalgic discrimination loss, or unexplained imbalance.

This is a prospective study comparing the short- and long-term three-dimensional (3D) changes in shape, length and balance of the spine after spinal instrumentation and fusion in a group of adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis. The objective of the study was to evaluate the stability over time of the postoperative changes of the spine after instrumentation with multi rod, hook and screw instrumentation systems. Thirty adolescents (average age: 14.5+/-1.6 years) undergoing surgery by a posterior approach had computerized 3D reconstructions of the spine done at an average of 3 days preoperatively (stage I), and 2 months (stage II) and 2,5 years (stage III) after surgery, using a digital multi-planar radiographic technique. Stages I, II and III were compared using various geometrical parameters of spinal length, curve severity, and orientation. Significant improvement of curve magnitude between stages I and II was documented in the frontal plane for thoracic and lumbar curves, as well as in the orientation of the plane of maximum deformity, which was significantly shifted towards the sagittal plane in thoracic curves. However, there was a significant loss of this correction between stages II and III. Slight changes were noted in apical vertebral rotation, in thoracic kyphosis and in lumbar lordosis. Spinal length and height were significantly increased at stage II, but at long-term follow-up spinal length continued to increase while spinal height remained similar. These results indicate that although a significant 3D correction can be obtained after posterior instrumentation and fusion, a significant loss of correction and an increase in spinal length occur in the years following surgery, suggesting that a crankshaft phenomenon may be an important factor altering the long-term 3D correction after posterior instrumentation of the spine for idiopathic scoliosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY The purpose was to evaluate short term results of thoracoscopic anterior release and fusion in adolescent scoliosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS An independent observer reviewed retrospectively hospital files and X-rays of 8 consecutive patients. The average follow-up was 14 months. The mean age at the time of surgery was 12 years old, all patients were skeletally immature. The surgical technique consisted in a thoracoscopic release and fusion of the discs space followed in the same time by a posterior instrumentation and fusion. Six cases were done in the prone position, two in the lateral decubitus. RESULTS The release could be done in 7 cases. In one case a severe bronchospasm prevented from doing discectomy. Four levels in average could be released and fused. The thoracoscopic time was 240 mn in average and the total surgical time 430 mn. The bleeding of the thoracoscopic procedure was minimal (less than 200 cc) in all but one case (2000 cc). The duration of the chest tube was 4.4 days. At last follow up the cosmetic advantage was obvious. The angular correction of the Cobb angle was 63 per cent (similar to our isolated posterior instrumentation). The radiologic aspect of the anterior fusion seemed to be less satisfactory than the ones of classic thoracotomies (although we did not observe any non union). DISCUSSION Our experience and these results moderate the initial enthusiasm of these new techniques reported in literature. Our current indications are therefore patients at risk of crankshaft, and complementary anterior fusion of dysplasic spines. As to the major curves we still recommend the anterior release through a formal thoracotomy which allows a more complete disc excision on more levels and a more abundant graft, with a shorter surgical time, with an associated morbidity which does not seem superior.

Abstract
The results of surgical treatment of vertebral metastases were evaluated from a retrospective review of a consecutive series of 100 patients, with special reference to anatomoclinical aspects and functional outcome. The primary tumour in most cases was lung, breast, or prostate; it was unknown in 11 cases. Diagnosis of the metastasis occurred 4-86 months after that of the primary tumour (lung metastasis: 4 months; breast metastasis: 86 months; prostatic metastasis: 22 months). Patients complained of vertebral pain in 96 cases and/or radicular pain in 43 cases. Intractable pain was observed in lung metastasis in particular. All patients received analgesics, and 57 received morphinics. Walking was impossible for 50 patients. Thirty-eight patients presented with neurologic deficit; neurologic status varied according to the primary tumour. Treatment included anterior surgery in 58 patients, posterior surgery in 33 patients, and combined surgery in 9 patients. Mean duration of hospitalisation was 12 days. No patient was admitted to the intensive care unit. Mean follow-up was 13.5 months. Eighty-nine patients were dead at follow-up, with an average survival of 10 months. Mean survival time was 7 months for patients with lung metastasis, 12 months for those with breast metastasis and 24 months for those with prostatic metastasis. Ten patients were still alive at follow-up (mean follow-up period 45 months, range 17-72 months). Analgesics were stopped for 62 patients following discharge from hospital. Morphinics had to be continued in seven patients. Thirty-five patients out of 50 (70%) recovered walking capacity. Neurologic status improved in 30 out of 38 patients. Although duration of survival was limited, surgery proved to be beneficial in providing a significant and early improvement in the functional status of more than 80% of patients. A precise evaluation of preoperative pain is necessary. Pain is dependent upon the bony lesion, the primary tumour, and the tumoral topography, which defines the surgical approach.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN Description of a new operative techniques for anterior lumbar and lumbosacral fusion using an anterior approach optimized by video assistance. OBJECTIVES To propose a less invasive technique for anterior lumbar fusion with low-grade morbidity. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Either anterior transperitoneal or anterolateral extraperitoneal approaches commonly are performed, but each involves specific drawbacks. The authors attempted to modify and simplify these approaches with the addition of retroperitonoscopy. METHODS A small, vertical 4- to 5-cm inclusion is made on the midline, centered on the umbilicus for the L4-L5 approach and halfway between umbilicus and public symphysis for the L5-S1 approach. The peritoneum is dissected from the left abdominal wall, and the anterior aspect of the spine progressively is exposed. The endoscope is introduced laterally, providing excellent visualization of the prevertebral area. A specially designed retractor allows retraction of the iliac vessels. RESULTS A midline anterior approach allows disc resection and grafting in a strict midline position. The extraperitoneal approach simplifies the postoperative course. Video assistance permits an approach to the spine by a short incision and facilitates the prevertebral dissection. Surgery with video assistance should be differentiated from true endoscopic surgery, which is performed under CO2 insufflation with exclusive endoscopic vision. CONCLUSIONS Video assistance allows for an anterior extraperitoneal approach in the lumbar spine and has the potential for lower morbidity, increasing the possibilities of anterior fusion in the management of lumber disc disease.

Abstract
Advances in spinal surgery for both posterior procedures on herniated discs and anterior procedures involving the vertebral body have been greatly affected by developments in video-assisted techniques. Many of the procedures mentioned here are still in the development stage, others have proven their efficacy. Discoscopy, achieved by introducing the endoscope via a posterolateral route into the intervertebral disc, can be used for diagnosis and treatment of the disc and the end plates. Other techniques exploring the spinal canal are also being developed. With miniaturization, these techniques will undoubtedly be predominant in the near future. The anterior route is facilitated at the thoracic level by the pleural cavity. Current indications for anterior endoscopic spinal surgery are limited to cord compression syndromes, but perspectives for trauma or tumor surgery as well as reconstruction surgery for malformations in children are quite promising. On the lumbar level, surgery involving the lombo-sacral disc is the main indication for transperitoneal endoscopy. The risks (sepsis, occlusion, gas emboli) cannot be overlooked, but few complications have been observed to date. The retroperitoneal route can be used to approach the anterolateral aspect of the spine, particularly useful for the upper lumbar bodies. A third possibility is the extraperitoneal anterior route for video-assisted procedures from L2-L3 to L5-S1. Although video-assisted procedures have not yet been shown to improve long-term outcome after spinal surgery, the immediate post-operative period is greatly simplified, a point which may be of particular importance depending on the patient's general status.
