oops, good catch! I use a lazy lateral position for mbb and this.

C7 snb 0.3 ml 2% lido

You are right! Sorry, it is my mistake, 2.5 in ndl indeed, in the past 10 years, no exceptions. Imo, you have to go through layers of paraspinal muscles using posterior approach, this may or may not affect the accuracy of mbb.

do cervical mbb using 25 1.5 inch ndl with patients over 300 lbs with no issues, need to change position for bilateral blocks.

I do some, but it's definitely not well-paid. I usually insert two needles at the L2 and L3 levels. The block has been reliable, but the relief is usually short-lived.

Thanks, could you show us some of Kypho pictures, appreciate it.

thanks for the information, which company has this curved stylet, only straight stylet is provided from Medtronic, our kits are basic ones, low quality cements, pulling cannula close to posterior border to deliver the cement is not risky to leak cement posteriorly?

Could you show us the style you do the kypho? thanks

I do unipedicular approach as well, my needle trajectory just like that, do you mind to show how you needle placement like, AP, Lateral and Cement delivery ;)

In this paper, need reach midline and front of vertebra, could you show us how you deliver cement to the circled area? Appreciated.

nice, could you elaborate more on how you adjust to cover the upper endplate well? for example, you access from the left-sided pedicle, the needle goes from the upper part of the vertebrate on the left side to the lower part of the vertebrate on the right side, and cement delivery to the left...

A new spine surgeon asked me for referrals for SI fusion, I said no, it did not work from my understanding.

I thought you replied to my post by mistake, there was just a question of retrialing there, I do not retrial the patient in the same segment. lol

Thanks, appreciate the information, interesting to know that the closed loop can work for people who failed other types of stim.

thanks for reminding us, we looked into the LCD very carefully.
