Short Segment Fixation for Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture Accompanying Osteopenia : A Comparative Study
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the results of three types of short segment screw fixation for thoracolumbar burst fracture accompanying osteopenia. METHODS The records of 70 patients who underwent short segment screw fixation for a thoracolumbar burst fracture accompanying osteopenia (-2.5< mean T score by bone mineral densitometry <-1.0) from January 2005 to January 2008 ...
متن کاملShort 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...

Nineteen patients younger than 40 years old with unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures were included. The surgical procedure included postural reduction for 3 days and screw fixations at one level above, one level below and at the fractured level ...
متن کاملImplant Removal after Percutaneous Short Segment Fixation for Thoracolumbar Burst Fracture : Does It Preserve Motion?
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of implant removal of percutaneous short segment fixation after vertebral fracture consolidation in terms of motion preservation. METHODS Between May 2007 and January 2011, 44 patients underwent percutaneous short segment screw fixation due to a thoracolumbar burst fracture. Sixteen of these patients, who underwent implant remov...
متن کاملSurgical outcomes of short-segment fixation for thoracolumbar fracture dislocation.
BACKGROUND Currently long-segment pedicle instrumentation for a thoracolumbar (T-L) fracture-dislocation is gaining in popularity. Otherwise, short-segment fixation may be chosen as an another treatment method. This article evaluates the efficacy and complications of short-segment fixation for the treatment of thoracic or lumbar spine fracture-dislocation. METHODS Twenty patients with thoraci...
