Template guided versus freehand rod bending in spinal deformity surgery: a feasibility study [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSpinal deformity correction relies on osteotomies and precisely contoured rods, which are critical for restoring sagittal alignment. Inaccurate rod bending may compromise alignment and increase the risk of junctional failure.
