Here’s a glimpse of my recent talk at the Saudi Spine Conference in Riyadh, where I had the privilege to discuss how I leverage cutting-edge technology to deliver precision-driven spine surgeries. From robotics and AI-driven surgical planning to virtual modeling and custom implants, I’ve embraced a combination of tools that allow me to create tailoredContinue reading “🎥 Pushing the Boundaries of Spine Surgery with Advanced Technology”

✨ Honored to Share and Learn at the Saudi Spine Society! ✨
I had the privilege of being invited by the Saudi Spine Society to deliver a keynote talk on the evolution of sagittal alignment of the spine. It was an incredible opportunity to dive deep into a topic that continues to shape the future of spine care. In addition, I had the pleasure of presenting onContinue reading “✨ Honored to Share and Learn at the Saudi Spine Society! ✨”
Follow up on Severe Malalignment case.
Here is the follow up on the severe malalignment case The patient underwent posterior instrumentation from T12-S1/Pelvis, TLIF at L5-S1 and a Pedicle Subtraction Osteotomy at L5. She has done great many years postop and was extremely grateful and happy at being able to stand upright after decades. neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosisContinue reading “Follow up on Severe Malalignment case.”

FLATBACK WITH PRIOR HARRINGTON ROD. CAN THIS BE TREATED?
This was recently presented as my case of the month by NASS. Severe sagittal and coronal malalignment in a patient in their 50s. -Prior surgery 40 years ago -Inability to stand upright (uses cane to ambulate) for years -Fatigue while ambulating -Lumbar radicular pain -Localized bilateral gluteal pain -Inability to lie down flat Important observations:Continue reading “FLATBACK WITH PRIOR HARRINGTON ROD.

Safe Use of Robotics in Spine Surgery
Final Tip #6 for Spine Surgeons 🤖: Embrace tactile feedback in #Robotics. Tap, don’t push the drill. Start with high-speed bur for 1cm depth, then switch to low-speed tap. Unsure? Trust your feel & check landmarks. 🛠️ Old tools, new tricks.Share your tips & experiences, especially Globus Medical robot users! #neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealthContinue reading “Safe Use of Robotics in Spine Surgery”
Safety in Robotic Spine Surgery
Tip #5 for Spine Surgeons: Master #Robotics with anatomy in mind! 🦴 For S2AI screws, clear bone that obstructs the trajectory. Be mindful of deep L5/S1 and medial PSIS – adjust or remove part of PSIS for optimal screw placement. And watch those sloped transverse processes in the thoracic spine! #neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealthContinue reading “Safety in Robotic Spine Surgery”
Safe Use of Robotics in Spine Surgery
Tip#4 for #Spine Surgeons: Ensure safe #Robotics use in spine surgery by minimizing tissue tension. Use bilateral retractors and consider a percutaneous/transmuscular approach to prevent errors. Remember, tension & asymmetric retraction often lead to errors at UIV/LIV neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosis #scoliosissurgeon #spinedeformity #spinaldeformity #idiopathicscoliosis #degenerativescoliosis #kyphosis #flatback #spinalalignment #spondylolisthesis
Safety in Robotic Spine Surgery
Tip#3 for fellow surgeons RoboticsInSpineSurgery Start proximal to distal High torque? Leave screws proud, tighten later Iliac/S2AI screws last for their torque Doubts about robot movement? Recheck landmarks For deformities, think headless/modular screws #neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosis #scoliosissurgeon #spinedeformity #spinaldeformity #idiopathicscoliosis #degenerativescoliosis #kyphosis #flatback #spinalalignment #spondylolisthesis
Safety in Robotic Spine Surgery
Tip#2 for fellow surgeons #RoboticsInSpineSurgery. Ensure all connections on the robot are secure & wait for the C-Arm to stabilize before imaging. Keeping prior screws but removing rods can aid, except for Harrington rods/hooks neurosurgery #physicaltherapy #chiropractor #spine #spinehealth #spinesurgery #scoliosis #scoliosissurgeon #spinedeformity #spinaldeformity #idiopathicscoliosis #degenerativescoliosis #kyphosis #flatback #spinalalignment #spondylolisthesis
