Corporate Spine: How Spine Surgery Went Off Track- Interview with Dr. Ardavan Aslie
Description
Each year, an estimated half-million people will undergo spinal fusion surgery in the U.S. alone. In most cases, surgeons will implant rods and screws into a patient’s fused vertebrae as part of the procedure. There’s just one enormous problem: according to the published medical literature, the screws provide little to no benefit for patients. Dr. Ardavan Aslie is a board-certified Harvard-trained university fellow spine surgeon who recently published his book called Corporate Spine: How Spine Surgery Went Off Track and How We Put It Right; in his research, he sounds the alarm with overwhelming evidence that pedicle screws used for spine surgery often do more harm than good, even though device manufacturers continue to push profits over patients.
