This 1 hour and 15 minute webinar recording focuses on spinal ankylosing disorders: ankylosing spondylitis (AS), disseminated hyperostosis of the spine (DISH), and end-stage spondylosis. It explores the current trends in AS presentation, technical nuances of treatment, early complications and associated outcomes of trauma in AS patients. Spinal ankylosing disorders represent a healthcare challenge. When these patients experience trauma, their injuries are often underestimated. They often experience prolonged inpatient hospitalizations with significant morbidity and mortality. This webinar updates and expands the knowledge of surgeons and helps them evaluate, treat and counsel AS patients, including the risks unique to patients with ankylosing spondylitis.


Up to 1.25 CME available.
