Pedicle screw malposition following spinal lumbar injury
Pedicle screws are the main type of instrumentation used in the lumbar spine via the posterior approach. The accuracy of their insertion is always a concern because the malposition of screws is associated with a potential risk of iatrogenic injury of any neurovascular structure they pass. Fortunately, spinal cord and cauda equina injuries are rare. This 18-year-old paraplegic woman presented mo...

OBJECTIVES To study and quantify the effects of rear-end collision on the lumbar spine. DESIGN The lumbar spine of a cadaver was instrumented with rosette strain gauges applied on the lateral and anterior surfaces of T12, L2, and L4. Biaxial accelerometers were mounted on L1, L3, and L5. The cadaver was seated, restrained, and subjected to rear impacts of 5g and 8g. RESULTS The anterior she...

متن کاملCell Therapy in Spinal Cord Injury: a Mini- Reivew
Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a debilitating disease which leads to progressive functional damages. Because of limited axonal regeneration in the central nervous system, there is no or little recovery expected in the patients. Different cellular and molecular approaches were investigated in SCI animal models. Cellular transplantation of stem cells can potentially replace damaged tissue and provid...
