Short-segment posterior instrumentation of thoracolumbar fractures as standalone treatment
summary This article reports on the radiographic outcome of unstable thoracolumbar fractures managed with short segment posterior instrumentation as standalone treatment. Short segment posterior instrumentation is the method of choice for unstable thoracolumbar injuries in our unit. It is considered to be adequate treatment in cases with an intact posterior longitudinal ligament, and Gaines sco...

متن کاملRadiological Outcome of Short Segment Posterior Instrumentation and Fusion for Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective study. PURPOSE To evaluate the radiological outcome of the surgical treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures by using short segment posterior instrumentation (SSPI) and fusion. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE The optimal surgical treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures remains a matter of debate. SSPI is one of a number of possible choices, yet some studies have revea...
متن کاملTreatment of Unstable Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures by Indirect Reduction and Posterior Stabilization: Short-Segment Versus Long-Segment Stabilization
In order to compare short-segment stabilization with long-segment stabilization for treating unstable thoracolumbar fractures, we studied fifty patients suffered from unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures. Thirty of them were managed with long-segment posterior transpedicular instrumentation and twenty patients with short-segment stabilization. The mean follow up period was 5.2 years. Pre-oper...
متن کاملComparing the efficacy of short-segment pedicle screw instrumentation with and without intermediate screws for treating unstable thoracolumbar fractures
It is generally acknowledged that short-segment pedicle screw instrumentation is the preferred surgical method for thoracolumbar fractures. However, the use of short-segment instrumentation with or without intermediate screws at the fracture level remains controversial.We retrospectively evaluated 44 patients (28 men, 16 women) with unstable thoracolumbar fractures. The patients were divided in...
