Balancing Stability and Recovery: Impact of Spinal Fusion Length on Surgical Site Infections and Functional Outcomes in Traumatic Thoracic and Thoracolumbar Spinal Cord Injuries

2024-12-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Spinal surgeries after traumatic thoracic or thoracolumbar spinal cord injuries (SCI) often involve extensive instrumentation, leading to an increased risk of surgical site infections (SSIs) and complications. This study investigates whether the number of spinal levels fused impacts functional recovery and the frequency of SSIs in individuals with vertebral fractures in the thoracic and/or lumb...
