Background

 Most spine surgery performed without preoperative

pedicle measurements

 Some literature looking at individual races 1,2,3,4  Unclear in literature whether inter-race differences exist  Economic Impact 5

 Pseudoarthrosis - $76,695  Instrumentation Failure - $66,838  Revision Spine Surgery - $26,592 - $86,673

Strengths

 Large, multicenter study  Large sample size  Diverse native population  Single observer confirmed

by senior surgeon

 No spine related pathology

Limitations

 Patient position/cut size

not standardized

 Race not confirmed by

genetics

 ‘Other’ category not better

defined

Conclusions

 Smallest pedicle diameters in Asian Race  Largest variability among the Black race  Careful preoperative measurements necessary  Standard Perioperative Xray not adequate to

maximize success
