The Virtual Spine Journal Club occurs on the first Friday of each month from 6 – 7 a.m. PST (register here). The series brings together renowned institutions from around the world and provides a forum for journal discussions related to the care of patients with spine disorders. The main topic this month will be focusing on indirect decompression of the spinal nerves with different surgical techniques, without having to perform an additional incision/surgery that will open the spinal canal to decompress the nerves. Also during the meeting, the most recent spine research and clinical information will be presented along with identifying the most current trends in the diagnosis and treatment of spine disorders and strategies for transferring research into practice.

“We look forward to providing our invaluable experience and expertise in spinal surgery with the application of advanced spinal techniques. Indirect decompression with spinal fusion can lead to shorter operative times, decreased surgical blood loss, fewer complications and equivalent, if not better clinical outcomes in spine surgery,” says Dr. Albert Wong.
