Wound drain in lumbar arthrodesis for degenerative disease: an experimental, multicenter, randomized controlled trial
Marcelo Molina, MDa,b,c, *, Ramon Torres, MD b,d , Magdalena Castro, RN.MSc c , Lucio Gonzales, MDb , Karen Weissmann, MD, PhDe , Maripaz Martinez, RNc , Marcos Ganga, MD d , Roberto Postigo, MD
doi : 10.1016/j.spinee.2022.12.002
Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2023, Pages 473-483
Drains for surgical wound management are frequently used in spine surgery. They are often used to decrease the incidence of postoperative hematoma and decrease wound tension. No conclusive evidence in the literature supports using drains to avoid complications in degenerative lumbar spine surgery.

Following spine surgery, postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) is a rare but potentially devastating complication. Previous studies have assessed risk factors for spine SSI and one aimed to develop risk stratification tool to assess management options, but this tool has not been externally validated or regularly used.

Volume 23, Issue 4, April 2023, Pages 504-512
A major shortcoming in improving care for cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) patients is the lack of robust quantitative imaging tools to guide surgical decision-making. Diffusion basis spectrum imaging (DBSI), an advanced diffusion-weighted MRI technique, provides objective assessments of white matter tract integrity that may help prognosticate outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for CSM.
