PTP utilizes a maximally efficient prone position while providing a consistently reproducible approach, enabling the surgeon to achieve powerful alignment. PTP is the next step for lateral interbody fusion (LIF) bringing together the benefits of an MIS transpsoas approach with the advantages of an ergonomic prone position, facilitating an intuitively superior single-position surgery used to treat a wide range of patient pathologies.
As the author of ”nTMS in neurosurgery” Krieg provides a comprehensive overview on nTMS as a perioperative adjunct which revolutionized neurophysiology by providing non-invasive risk assessment and postoperative treatment of surgery-related motor deficits. Insights on recently published machine learning approaches and current evidence on nTMS vs awake surgery will complete his presentation. Narayana demonstrates the feasibility of nTMS motor and language mapping in children and discuss their integration into the pediatric tumor and epilepsy surgeries.
