About

Rami George Alrabaa is a spine surgeon and researcher whose work centers on improving the safety and precision of spinal instrumentation. His primary research areas include robotic-assisted spine surgery, surgical outcomes, and complication reduction in complex spinal deformities. Alrabaa’s most cited study, “Accuracy of S2 Alar-Iliac Screw Placement Under Robotic Guidance” (2017, 78 citations), demonstrated that robotic navigation significantly enhances screw placement accuracy compared to freehand techniques, a critical advancement for pelvic fixation in deformity correction. His second major contribution, “Instrumentation complication rates following spine surgery: a report from the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) morbidity and mortality database” (2019, 35 citations), analyzed over 1,000 cases from the SRS M&M database, identifying key risk factors for instrumentation-related complications—such as revision surgery and osteotomies—providing evidence-based guidelines to reduce adverse events. This work underscores his commitment to leveraging large-scale registry data to improve surgical safety. Alrabaa’s research bridges cutting-edge technology with clinical outcomes, offering practical insights for spine surgeons. His findings have been cited in guidelines for robotic spine surgery and complication prevention, making him a valuable voice in the field.
