Default myth vs. reality

There has to be a more or less definate clinical picture or fine cut off point where surgeons determine not to do ADR re facet degenerative changes tho perhaps at times the clinical picture is not always as clear before surgery as it is afterwards?

Default Myth Buster?

More like an axe to grind than beneficial dialogue.

Default re your questions

I think any surgery of this magnitude can be potentially life threatening. Depends on the patient and the surgeon.

I do not take spine surgery lightly after my failed percutaneous discectomy on L4. I took that far too lightly. Big mistake. By the time I was eligble for a 2 level ADR I was too scared to go thru w/it.

I don't know what a vein barrier is so cannot answer that question tho could google it and probably find out tho would rather you define it since you asked the question.
