Historically, spine surgery was always treated as inferior to Cranial surgery by Neurosurgeons. Though spinal cord surgery was treated with due respect, spinal surgeries never received its due. With increasing life expectancy and lifestyle disorders, Spinal disorders are on a raise. They now contribute to 60% of Neurosurgeons work! Spinal deformity surgery is a niche field, which would definitely benefit with Neurosurgeon involvement- the use of Microscopes, high-speed drills, and IONM can revolutionize the outcome. It’s a road less traveled but is a need of the hour. Author presents
