This volume of "Advances and Technical Standards in
Neurosurgery" is devoted entirely to the spine. Like other volumes
in the series, it presents important recent progress in the field
and offers detailed descriptions of standard procedures to assist
young neurosurgeons. Among the advances considered are approaches
to spinal navigation, including intraoperative imaging based
navigation, and concepts of spinal robotics. The value of sagittal
balance as a parameter for the neurosurgeon is examined, and a
novel surgical approach to longitudinal pathologies within the
spinal canal is presented. Developments in surgery for kyphosis are
also discussed, with a focus on pedicle subtraction osteotomy. The
technical standards section critically reviews the latest evidence
regarding cervical disc arthroplasty and pedicle-based non-fusion
stabilization devices. The book concludes by discussing the
treatment of craniovertebral junction instability as a result of
juvenile chronic arthritis.
