👉🏻PLIF/TLIF for degenerative grade 1 lumbar spondylolisthesis was associated with a mean 60-month cost per QALY gained of $29,511 with Medicare fees. This is far below the well-established societal willingness-to-pay threshold of $100,000, suggesting long-term cost-effectiveness.

Incredible weekend at Barrow Neurological Institute for the 2024 AANS/NREF MIS and Emerging Technologies Course! Senior residents & fellows honed skills in hands-on labs & didactic sessions. Big thank you to Drs Juan Uribe and Praveen Mummaneni for putting on a fantastic event.
