Conference Report | The 5th Spine Repair and Reconstruction Workshop at the Second Qilu Hospital of Shandong University Successfully Concluded
On August 23, 2025, the Second Qilu Hospital of Shandong University successfully hosted the 5th Spine Repair and Reconstruction Workshop in Jinan. Attended by orthopedic clinicians from Jiangsu, Heilongjiang, Henan, and Shandong provinces, the workshop adopted an immersive, four-in-one training model—theoretical lectures, live surgery observation, hands-on simulation, and in-depth discussions—providing participants with a comprehensive journey to enhance both knowledge and practical skills in spine repair and reconstruction.

Launching a New Journey
Professors Chunzheng Gao and Dongjin Wu delivered the opening remarks, emphasizing that minimally invasive spine repair techniques are a key direction in modern orthopedic development. Professor Lei Cheng from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, was invited as the lead lecturer. Professors Gao and Wu highlighted that this systematic and practice-oriented training aims to empower more clinicians to master precise and efficient spine repair techniques.

Theoretical Insights
Professor Cheng delivered an online lecture titled “Application Strategies and Techniques of Single-Channel Endoscopic Annulus Fibrosus Suturing,” detailing the development and clinical significance of the technique and providing participants with a deep, structured understanding.
Professor Changliang Peng presented “Minimally Invasive Solutions for Functional Annulus Fibrosus Repair: Standardized Endoscopic Suturing and Outcome Analysis”, using typical cases to demonstrate standardized procedural steps and analyze long-term outcomes. Professors Jie Zhao and Professor Ji Li also shared their insights on Percutaneous Single-Channel Endoscopic Key-hole Approach for Cervical Radiculopathy and UBE Endoscopic Fusion Techniques and Clinical Applications, respectively, garnering strong interest from attendees.

Experiencing Surgical Excellence
The live surgery observation sessions seamlessly integrated theory and practice. Four high-complexity surgeries were broadcast with expert commentary, allowing participants to experience the precision and artistry of the surgical teams firsthand.
Notable procedures included:
· Professor Xianglong Zhuo: Lateral Approach Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy + Annulus Fibrosus Suturing
· Professor Dongjin Wu: Posterior Approach Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy + Annulus Fibrosus Suturing
· Professor Ji Li: UBE Endoscopic Lumbar Decompression + Discectomy + Annulus Fibrosus Suturing
Each surgery highlighted different approaches and techniques, demonstrating proper instrument use, procedural norms, and indications for annulus fibrosus suturing. Professor Cheng Zhang also presented an additional live surgery, further enriching participants’ observational experience. Interactive discussions were vibrant, with attendees raising questions from lectures and surgeries, while expert professors provided detailed, professional guidance.

Hands-On Simulation
Simulation sessions offered participants the opportunity to translate theoretical knowledge into practical skills. Under expert supervision, attendees practiced precise annulus fibrosus suturing techniques using specialized instruments, receiving real-time feedback and guidance to refine their skills.

Looking Forward
During the closing ceremony, Professor Dongjin Wu awarded certificates to participants who completed the workshop, acknowledging their dedication and performance. In his remarks, he expressed gratitude to the expert faculty and enthusiastic participants and emphasized the hope for more exchanges and collaborations in the future to advance spine repair and reconstruction.

The successful conclusion of the 5th Spine Repair and Reconstruction Workshop at the Second Qilu Hospital of Shandong University not only provided a high-level learning platform for orthopedic clinicians but also facilitated the dissemination of cutting-edge knowledge and techniques in spine repair. Ultimately, these efforts will contribute to clinical advancements and bring greater health and hope to patients.
