Short Segment Fixation Versus Short Segment Fixation With Pedicle Screws at the Fracture Level for Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture
Objective: The most prevailing surgical procedure in the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures, Short Segment Fixation (SSF), is often followed by loss of correction or hardware failure which may be signifi cant enough to require another surgical intervention. In order to take advantage of its benefi ts but to avoid or diminish the risk and impact of associated drawbacks, some other altern...
متن کاملShort Segment versus Long Segment Pedicle Screws Fixation in Management of Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures: Meta-Analysis
Posterior pedicle screw fixation has become a popular method for treating thoracolumbar burst fractures. However, it remains unclear whether additional fixation of more segments could improve clinical and radiological outcomes. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of fixation levels with pedicle screw fixation for thoracolumbar burst fractures. MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Coc...
متن کاملPosterior short segment pedicle screw fixation and TLIF for the treatment of unstable thoracolumbar/lumbar fracture
BACKGROUND Currently, Posterior Short Segment Pedicle Screw Fixation is a popular procedure for treating unstable thoracolumbar/lumbar burst fracture. But progressive kyphosis and a high rate of hardware failure because of lack of the anterior column support remains a concern. The efficacy of different methods remains debatable and each technique has its advantages and disadvantages. METHODS ...
متن کاملNeurological outcome following delayed fixation of unstable thoracolumbar spinal injuries with short segment posterior fixation.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the improvement in neurological deficit following late decompression and stabilization of the fractured thoracolumbar spine. METHODS Between January 2001 and August 2004 neurological recovery in 120 thoracolumbar fractures was studied after posterior stabilization at the Hospital for Bone & Joint Surgery, Srinagar, India. There were 88 male and 32 female patients. Fall f...
متن کاملFactors predicting long-term outcome after short-segment posterior fixation for traumatic thoracolumbar fractures
BACKGROUND The "gold standard" for instrumentation of unstable thoracolumbar fracture-dislocations is pedicle screw and rod fixation. Although traditional treatment supports long-segment posterior fixation (LSPF), more recent studies show short-segment posterior fixation (SSPF) may be effective, but incur higher failure rates. Here, we evaluated the effectiveness of SSPF in the management of un...
