“…Open reduction with dorsal spondylodesis is an established standard operation in spinal surgery which was performed over 463,200 times in the U.S. in 2014 [1,2]. Indications range from degenerative spondylolisthesis with instability to traumatic B-type fractures with further need to ventral stabilization [3,4]. A severe complication after spondylodesis is the occurrence of a surgical site infection (SSI).…”

“…The current AOSpine Trauma classification was developed by the AOSpine Trauma Knowledge Forum to create a comprehensive and easy-to-use fracture classification system for surgeons. Initially developed to classify thoracolumbar spine fractures, it has since expanded to classify subaxial cervical spine fractures 9 , 10 . Both of these classification systems have been validated through an international group of spine surgeons noted to be clinical experts in the treatment of these fractures 11 , 12 .…”
