Recent studies highlight the increasing adoption of single-position prone lateral(SP-PL) and single-position lateral decubitus(SP-LD) in Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery(MISS) to reduce operative time, enhance patient safety, and improve surgical accessibility. ⋯ Patients placed in the SP-PL during minimally invasive spine surgery exhibit a reduced rate of perioperative complications, higher incidence of SCB, and a superior rate of achieving optimal outcome at the one-year follow-up. These findings underscore the SP-PL position as a potentially advantageous approach for minimally invasive lumbar fusion.

Experimental Study. ⋯ The EOS rabbit model demonstrated reduced lung volume, impaired alveolarization, septal thickening, and vascular changes, indicating scoliosis's negative impact on thoracic and lung development, especially on the concave lung.

Retrospective cohort study. ⋯ The current results demonstrate that sugammadex may create less risk for cardiac complications, and is likely associated with more rapid reversal and decreased OR time during prone lumbar fusion. However, additional research is needed to further validate these findings, especially amongst patients with cardiac comorbidities.

Retrospective study analysis. ⋯ Our study demonstrated FJOA, PI, age, and female were associated with paraspinal sarcopenia. The assessments of paraspinal muscles cross-sectional area were not associated with the severity of fatty infiltration.
