A biomechanical comparison of a novel thoracic screw fixation method: transarticular screw fixation vs traditional pedicle screw fixation.
BACKGROUND Transarticular screw fixation is used in the upper cervical and lumbar spine to achieve posterior spinal stability, and its biomechanical performance has been proven to be similar to that of pedicle screw fixation. However, few studies have reported the use of transarticular screw fixation in the upper thoracic spine. OBJECTIVE To biomechanically compare transarticular screws with ...
متن کاملA comparative analysis of the efficacy of short-segment pedicle screw fixation with that of long-segment pedicle screw fixation for unstable thoracolumbar spinal burst fractures
The indications for operative treatment and type of stabilization procedures for the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fracture remain controversial. As surgical reconstruction for the thoracolumbar burst fracture, both long-segment pedicle screw fixation and short-segment pedicle screw fixation including fractured vertebral body have been used widely. The present study evaluated the efficacy of...
متن کاملBone Cement-Augmented Short-Segment Pedicle Screw Fixation for Kümmell Disease with Spinal Canal Stenosis
BACKGROUND This study aimed to explore the feasibility and efficacy of bone cement-augmented short-segmental pedicle screw fixation in treating Kümmell disease. MATERIAL AND METHODS From June 2012 to June 2015, 18 patients with Kümmell disease with spinal canal stenosis were enrolled in this study. Each patient was treated with bone cement-augmented short-segment fixation and posterolateral bon...
متن کاملShort-segment fixation with a cement-augmented pedicle screw for Kummell disease
RATIONALE Kummell disease is described as avascular necrosis of a vertebral body that occurred in a delayed fashion after a minor trauma. Anterior, posterior, and anterior-posterior approaches have been reported. Nevertheless, there is no standard treatment for patients with Kummell disease. PATIENT CONCERNS We reported a successful cement-augmented pedicle screw placement in a patient with K...
متن کاملPedicle screw fixation in the spine.
In August 1993, in the USA, an FDA advisory committee of experts reviewed the scientific data on pedicle screws and decided that not enough was known about the shortterm problems or the long-term safety and effectiveness of these devices to allow their use to be approved. Manufacturers were therefore forbidden to promote the use of screws in the spine, and patients were warned that pedicle scre...
