Features: Currently, the overall core of medicine (especially surgery) is changing rapidly. As doctors, the challenge we face is to provide appropriate continuing education for our peers and the next generation. In an era that increasingly emphasizes economic benefits and the rapid expansion of information resources, this challenge is even more significant. As educational institutions need to compete with private training academies focused on clinical training, undergraduate and graduate students will be significantly affected. Therefore, it is more important than ever to compile a concise and clear learning material in the current context. The intention of the authors of this book is to provide a brief overview of modern indications, surgical techniques, and surgical outcomes related to various spinal surgeries. As one of the authors of this book stated, "The current work is dedicated to adding new insights to spinal surgery." Although the book was originally intended for the training of general physicians, it can also serve as a reference book for self-study, morning or evening reading. In reality, the book has a broader scope of application. We sincerely hope to provide busy clinicians with a concise reference book on spinal surgery, rather than offering definitive and detailed conclusions on the surgical methods, indications, techniques, or outcomes mentioned. In this sense, the book meets the basic requirements of a learning material and motivates readers to further explore and read about the key questions they are curious about. The Practical Atlas of Spinal Surgery provides a concise overview of the indications, surgical techniques, and treatment outcomes of various spinal surgeries. The book is divided into four parts: lumbar spine, thoracic spine, lower cervical spine, and upper cervical spine, accompanied by clear and simple surgical diagrams. The text is concise and well-organized, making it a valuable reference book for busy orthopedic surgeons.
