Synopsis

Prepare for your next spine case with a clearer, more defensible operative plan.

Choosing an approach means connecting the patient’s symptoms and imaging with anatomy, stability, alignment, decompression requirements, and the demands of reconstruction.

Spine Surgery Handbook for Operative Decisions helps orthopaedic and neurosurgical fellows bring those considerations together through 30 chapters, illustrated operative anatomy, and 60 clinical decision cases.

Designed also for senior residents and early-career spine surgeons, this handbook provides a structured way to examine operative choices, compare alternatives, and explain why a plan fits the clinical problem.

Inside, you will find:

  • Anatomy connected to operative choices: Study cervical, craniovertebral, thoracic, lumbar, and lumbosacral anatomy through surgical corridors, exposure limitations, and vulnerable structures.

  • Decompression and fusion planning: Examine cervical myelopathy, radiculopathy, lumbar stenosis, disc herniation, spondylolisthesis, and interbody approach selection.

  • Instrumentation and construct strategy: Connect fixation choices with alignment, bone quality, biomechanics, fusion biology, and lumbosacral and sacropelvic requirements.

  • 60 clinical decision cases: Practice identifying the dominant problem, comparing reasonable options, recognizing missing information, and explaining what findings would change the plan.

  • Complex surgical contexts: Explore adult deformity, trauma, tumors, infection, revision surgery, implant failure, and intraoperative and postoperative complications.

  • Contemporary techniques and practical study tools: Review minimally invasive and endoscopic approaches, navigation, and robotics alongside preoperative worksheets, approach comparisons, checklists, briefing cards, and case-debrief tools.

Throughout the book, the emphasis remains on making surgical reasoning explicit: defining the purpose of treatment, understanding the anatomical and mechanical constraints, anticipating complications, and reconsidering the plan when the facts change.

Use it to organize study before supervised procedures, prepare for case conferences, and strengthen your explanation of operative decisions.

Define the problem. Compare the options. Explain the plan.

For professional education alongside supervised surgical training and current clinical guidance.
