Using a retractor blades that mount to percutaneous screws makes so much sense for MIS-TLIF; create your goal posts with screws, retract with attached blades, and your disk is just above the lower screw. OU Health University of Oklahoma Neurosurgery Andrew Jea Hakeem Shakir

Great to be a speaker in the Neurosurgeon-Scientist seminar today at CNS. This is great new half day seminar for senior residents and young surgeons. Many new mechanisms in Neurosurgery to support early career neurosurgeons!! And it appears it is enhancing funding! #CNS2024

A full house at end of this last week for Haneen’s talk on pathological tau protein and Alzheimer’s. OU Neuroscience could not be more proud of her and her work in under Veronica Galvan’s mentorship! OU Health University of Oklahoma Neurosurgery

The morphology of the spine is a great marker of injury in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy. This injury spans noticeably far PAST areas of direct compression. See our new paper in The Spine Journal!
