Dear Colleagues,
We sincerely wish the happy and healthy summer to all my colleagues and their families. We are happy to accomplish the third issue of 2018.
There are 11 clinical research articles in this issue. These are two experimental studies about the epidural fibrosis. In the third study, the results of cerebral palsy scoliosis were presented. Forth study is about sagittal plane in spinal deformity. In next three article, effects of obesity on elective spinal surgery, intracranial complications of lumbar spinal surgery, and early radiological imaging following spinal fusion operations has been discussed. Seventh study is about spinal anesthesia for elective lumbar spine surgery. In eighth study, effect of radiotherapy on postlaminectomy low back syndrome is presented. Last two article are about the lumbar disc herniation. We believe that all those studies will quietly interest the readers. Unfortunately, in this issue, there is no section of the “Frontiers of the Spinal Surgery” but we will continue this section
in the next issue.
We wish healthy, successful and peaceful summer to Turkish Spinal Surgery family and we present our deepest respects.
