Abstract

The article presents a study on the self assessment of appearance by patients who underwent posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). There were not significant preoperative differences found in 93 patients in the all pedicle screw cohort and 61 in the hybrid cohort. A better assessment of self-appearance was determined for all pedicle screw constructs.

92. Community-associated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureusin Acute Musculoskeletal Infection in Children A Game Changer

Author

Have, Kelly L. Vander, Karmazyn, Boaz, Verma, Maneesh, Caird, Michelle S., Hensinger, Robert N., Farley, Frances A., and Lubicky, John P.

Abstract

Community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(CA-MRSA) is a virulent pathogen responsible for an increasing number of invasive musculoskeletal infections in healthy children. The purpose of this study is to characterize the presentation, clinical course, treatment, complications, and long-term morbidity of CA-MRSA musculoskeletal infection in children.

93. The EMR: Is It All It's Cracked Up to Be?

Abstract

I cut my teeth in medicine before CT, MRI, intraoperative navigation, cellphones, and of course, the electronic medical record (EMR). Standing for "Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan", the new medical record concept was intended to standardize a cogent note in a patient's chart. At my hospital, they were supposed to generate or retrieve patients' medical record numbers (MRNs), which we needed to order tests or radiographs, when they arrived for admission, to the clinic, or to the emergency department.

95. Aneurysmal Bone Cysts of the Spine Excision and Stabilization

Author

Turker, Ronald J., Mardjetko*, Steven, and Lubicky*, John

Abstract

The treatment of aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) of the spine remains controversial in the literature. Treatment options have included radiation, curettage and bone graft, extirpation, and various combinations of these. Conspicuously missing in previously published articles and texts are guidelines for dealing with the instability and deformity that often accompany ABCs of the spine. The index case in this report highlights the potentially devastating effects of treating the tumor in isolation without addressing the concomitant deformity and instability. The status of the structural integrity of the spine must be assessed before initiating treatment. If instability or deformity or both are already present or if the amount of osseous tissue to be resected may render the spine unstable, then instrumentation and fusion should be performed at the time of surgical resection or before other forms of therapy. We present three cases of ABCs of the spine in which the tumor itself was treated with surgical extirpation and the associated deformity and instability were treated with spinal instrumentation and long fusions.
