Temporomandibular disorders encompass a group of conditions affecting the temporomandibular joint, masticatory muscles, and associated structures. These disorders often manifest as pain, limited jaw movement, and audible clicking or popping sounds during jaw function. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the association between TMD and cervical spine pain, particularly among young individuals. This article explores the relationship between cervical spine pain intensity and occurrence in young individuals with TMD, delving into the underlying mechanisms, clinical implications, and potential treatment strategies. TMD is prevalent in the general population, with a higher incidence in young adults and females. Adolescents and young adults are particularly susceptible due to hormonal changes, stress, and lifestyle factors.

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosi is a complex, three-dimensional spinal deformity that occurs in children aged 10 to 18 without a known cause. AIS can lead to significant physical deformity, pain, and reduced quality of life. Traditional surgical treatments involve large incisions, extensive muscle dissection, and lengthy recovery times. However, minimally invasive surger has emerged as a promising alternative, offering reduced surgical trauma, faster recovery, and better cosmetic outcomes. This article provides a systematic review of the current literature on MIS for AIS, evaluating its efficacy, safety, and long-term outcomes.

The spine is a remarkable structure that provides stability, support flexibility to the human body. However, various conditions can affect its functionality, leading to pain, discomfort mobility issues. Among the surgical procedures aimed at addressing spinal issues, laminectomy stands out as a fundamental technique with a rich history and significant implications in spine research and treatment. In this article, we delve into the basics of laminectomy, its evolution, techniques, indications, outcomes its role in advancing spine research.

Spine surgery is one of the most intricate and high-stakes domains in the medical field. Due to the complexity of spinal anatomy and the proximity to critical structures such as the spinal cord and major blood vessels, precise surgical intervention is paramount. Image-guided navigation has revolutionized spine surgery, enhancing the accuracy, safety, and outcomes of these procedures. This article explores the historical advancements in image-guided navigation in spine surgery and discusses the future prospects of this evolving technology.
