    Adult Spinal Deformity Over 70 Years of Age: A 2-Year Follow-Up Study
    (INT SOC ADVANCEMENT SPINE SURGERY-ISASS, 2019-01-01) Karabulut, Cem; Ayhan, Selim; Yuksel, Selcen; Nabiyev, Vugar; Vila-Casademunt, Alba; Pellise, Ferran; Alanay, Ahmet; Sanchez Perez-Grueso, Francisco Javier; Kleinstuck, Frank; Obeid, Ibrahim; Acaroglu, Emre; Grp, European Spine Study
    Background: Treatment of adult spinal deformity (ASD) in elderly patients remains controversial. The aim of this study was to identify the factors leading to the surgical treatment by comparing the baseline characteristics of operative versus nonoperative patients, to evaluate the safety and efficacy of surgery, and to compare operative and nonoperative management of elderly ASD patients at the end of the 2-year follow-up period. Methods: Retrospective review of a multicenter, prospective ASD database was performed. Patients over 70 years of age with ASD who were scheduled to undergo surgical treatment and who were treated and/or followed without surgical intervention participated in the study. Demographic, clinical, surgical, and radiological characteristics and health-related quality-of-life (HRQOL) (Core Outcome Measures Index {[}COMI], Oswestry Disability Index {[}ODI], Short-Form-36 Mental Component Summary {[}SF-36 MCS], Short-Form-36 Physical Component Summary {[}SF36-PCS], and Scoliosis Research Society-22 {[}SRS-22]) parameters of such group of patients were evaluated pre-and posttreatment. Results: A total 90 patients (females: 71, males: 29

    The Influence of Diagnosis, Age, and Gender on Surgical Outcomes in Patients With Adult Spinal Deformity
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2018-01-01) Ayhan, Selim; Yuksel, Selcen; Nabiyev, Vugar; Adhikari, Prashant; Villa-Casademunt, Alba; Pellise, Ferran; Sanchez Perez-Grueso, Francisco; Alanay, Ahmet; Obeid, Ibrahim; Kleinstueck, Frank; Acaroglu, Emre; Grp, European Spine Study
    Study Design: Retrospective review of prospectively collected data from a multicentric database. Objectives: To determine the clinical impact of diagnosis, age, and gender on treatment outcomes in surgically treated adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients. Methods: A total of 199 surgical patients with a minimum follow-up of 1 year were included and analyzed for baseline characteristics. Patients were separated into 2 groups based on improvement in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) parameters by minimum clinically important difference. Statistics were used to analyze the effect of diagnosis, age, and gender on outcome measurements followed by a multivariate binary logistic regression model for these results with statistical significance. Results: Age was found to affect SF-36 PCS (Short From-36 Physical Component Summary) score significantly, with an odds ratio of 1.017 (unit by unit) of improving SF-36 PCS score on multivariate analysis (P < .05). The breaking point in age for this effect was 37.5 years (AUC = 58.0, P = .05). A diagnosis of idiopathic deformity would increase the probability of improvement in Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) by a factor of 0.219 and in SF-36 PCS by 0.581 times (P < .05). Gender was found not to have a significant effect on any of the HRQOL scores. Conclusions: Age, along with a diagnosis of degenerative deformity, may have positive effects on the likelihood of improvement in SF-36 PCS (for age) and ODI (for diagnosis) in surgically treated patients with ASD and the breaking point of this effect may be earlier than generally anticipated. Gender does not seem to affect results. These may be important in patient counseling for the anticipated outcomes of surgery.

    Purely extradural spinal nerve root hemangioblastomas
    (MEDKNOW PUBLICATIONS \& MEDIA PVT LTD, 2016-01-01) Aytar, Murat Hamit; Yener, Ulas; Eksi, Murat Sakir; Kaya, Behram; Ozgen, Serdar; Sav, Aydin; Alanay, Ahmet
    Spinal nerve root hemangioblastomas present mostly as intradural-extradurally. Purely extradural spinal nerve root hemangioblastoma is a very rare entity. In this study, we aimed to analyze epidemiological perspectives of purely extradural spinal nerve root hemangioblastomas presented in English medical literature in addition to our own exemplary case. PubMed/MEDLINE was searched using the terms ``hemangioblastoma,{''} ``extradural,{''} ``spinal,{''} and ``nerve root.{''} Demographical variables of age, gender, concomitant presence of von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease
