About
Katherine Sabetta is a rising leader in spine surgery innovation, with a focused expertise in minimally invasive techniques and anesthesia optimization for lumbar fusion. Her most-cited work, "Awake Minimally Invasive Surgery Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion Under Spinal Anesthesia," investigates the accuracy of pedicle screw placement and patient outcomes under spinal anesthesia—a paradigm-shifting approach that eliminates general anesthesia risks. This 2024 study, already garnering attention with 2 citations, demonstrates her commitment to enhancing surgical safety and recovery. Sabetta’s contributions center on refining MIS-TLIF protocols, proving that awake procedures can achieve high screw placement accuracy while maintaining excellent one-year follow-up results. Her research bridges anesthesiology and orthopedics, offering a less invasive, patient-centered alternative for degenerative spinal conditions. As a young investigator, Sabetta’s work signals a future where spine surgery is safer, faster, and more accessible, making her a notable voice in the evolution of awake spinal interventions.
