Popis: To investigate the incidence and causes of reoperations within 30 days of spine surgery. Patients who underwent spine surgery between 2002 and 2012, at one of 9 institutions, were enrolled. The causes of all reoperations, within 30 days of the index surgery, were reviewed. The incidence of reoperations within 30 days were calculated and compared according to the preoperative diagnosis, use of instrumentation, surgical level, and approach. Moreover, the distribution of the causes for reoperations within the 30-day period was also assessed. The overall incidence of reoperations, within 30 days of spine surgery, was 1.6 % (175/10,680). Patients who underwent instrumentation procedures demonstrated a higher incidence of reoperations than patients who underwent procedures without instrumentation (P
