Abstract
Surgery of spinal pathology should include: high cure rates, possibility of simply intervening on patients already treated, low recurrence rate, absence of contraindications, minimal side effects, no complications in the short, medium and long term, no acute or chronic toxicity, absence of requiring long hospitalization, short convalescence, maximum conservativity of spinal biomechanics in treated district, reduction of the need of post-operative use of orthopedic devices (busts, corsets etc.), low cost.
