Learning Objectives:

1) Appropriately work up a patient with a new lesion found in the spine. 2) Recognize and address spinal deformity as part of both indications and treatment for patients with spinal tumors. 3) Discuss the NOMS algorithm and SINS system as they apply to patients with metastatic disease of the spine. 4) Identify common errors made in working up patients with primary tumors of the spine.

PJK has dominated adult spinal deformity. However, as we look at the foundation of spinopelvic fixation, we have challenges there as well. This webinar discusses the problems and potential solutions for spinopelvic fixation.

Learning Objectives:

1) Identify commonly encountered clinical treatment of Spondylolysis and Spondylolithesis. 2) Recognize scenarios of the pediatric population and of symptomatic disease in the adult. 3) Detect non-operative and operative treatment options

This webinar will provide practical tips and tricks for minimally invasive surgery for patients with spinal deformity. There will be an update on essential MIS techniques presented through video demonstration with case examples that you may find in your own clinical practice.

Learning Objectives:

1) Implement decision making from each perspective: patient, surgeon, hospital, and policy. 2) Incorporate a true shared decision making model for all stakeholders in ASD surgery, including the patients. 3) Provide an outline of the current predictive modeling methodology being utilized in ASD surgery. 4) Improve patient selection via appropriate risk stratification, optimize clinical and radiographic outcomes, and explore the economics of ASD surgery.

Learning Objectives:

1) Identify the potential advantages of vertebral body tethering compared to the standard arthrodesis procedure in AIS. 2) Define the principle of growth modulation in correcting and maintaining curve correction in the skeletally immature AIS patient. 3) Term established indications for the tethering procedure. 4) Define the prerequisite skill sets required in the performance of the tethering procedure. 5) Delineate the pitfalls, complications, and unknown long term outcomes associated with spinal tethering procedure.
