Optimizing Complex Spine Reconstruction: A Multidisciplinary Approach

Edited by renowned experts Alexander Ropper, Sebastian Winocour, Michael Bohl, and Edward Reece, Spinoplastic Reconstruction is the essential reference guide for surgeons seeking to improve patient outcomes through multidisciplinary spine reconstruction techniques.

The Emergence of Spinoplastic Surgery

Lessons learned from plastic surgery, orthopaedic surgery, and neurosurgery have converged to form a new field of surgery, focused on optimizing complex bony and soft tissue reconstruction. This comprehensive textbook provides in-depth discussion of multidisciplinary techniques, complication management, and best practices for achieving improved outcomes in spine surgery patients.

Comprehensive Coverage of Spinoplastic Techniques

Organized into nine sections and 42 chapters, Spinoplastic Reconstruction covers the full spectrum of spinoplastic surgery, including:

• Historical and future relevance of multidisciplinary surgery and the advent of spinoplastic surgery
• Applied anatomy, biomechanics, and bony spinal stability
• Bone healing, bone adjuncts, and perioperative management
• Surgical spine exposures, vascularized autologous bone grafts, and flaps
• Soft tissue spinal reconstruction and complication management

Key Features and Benefits

This unique resource offers:

• Contributions from an impressive group of multidisciplinary spinoplastic surgery founders and innovators
• Traditional and novel approaches for managing common challenges in spine surgery, including pseudoarthrosis and wound infection
• High-quality operative photos, illustrations, and 12 videos providing visual understanding of spinal anatomy and techniques
• Tables, diagrams, and end-of-chapter key points enhancing knowledge acquisition and retention

By bridging the gap between soft tissue reconstruction and complex spine surgery, Spinoplastic Reconstruction enables surgeons to provide better collaborative patient management and improve patient outcomes.
