Upper Lumbar Pedicle Screw Insertion Using Three-Dimensional Fluoroscopy Navigation:Assessment of Clinical Accuracy [PDF]
, 2010 We used a navigation system to insert 128 pedicle screws into 69 vertebrae (L1 to L3) of 49 consecutive patients. We assessed the pedicle isthmic width and the permission angle for pedicle screw insertion. The permission angle is the angle defined by the

Early Radiographic Outcomes of Vascularized Pedicle Bone Grafting in Foot: A Case Series
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery Open, 2022 Background Navicular nonunion and talar avascular necrosis may result from limited blood supply predisposing to injury and impaired healing. Vascularized pedicled bone grafting is a promising adjunct to treat these challenging conditions, offering the ...

Improvement of the Rotation Arch of the Posterior Interosseous Pedicle Flap Preserving Both Reverse Posterior and Anterior Interosseous Vascular Sources. [PDF]
, 2016 PURPOSE: The reverse posterior interosseous artery flap has several advantages, not sacrificing any major blood vessel, but its relatively short pedicle limits the use to cover defects up to the metacarpophalangeal joint.

Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery Open, 2017 Background Even after careful microanastomosis, microsurgeons sometimes encounter unexpected twisting, kinking, and destabilizing mechanical forces. In these cases, a small fat graft is a useful technique for stabilizing the pedicle geometry in free flap

Pedicle streaking: A novel and simple aid in pedicle positioning in free tissue transfer
Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2015 Introduction: The pedicle positioning in free tissue transfer is critical to its success. Long thin pedicles are especially prone to this complication where even a slight twist in the perforator can result in flap loss.

Pedicle screw placement in patients with variant atlas pedicle [PDF]
Journal of International Medical Research, 2016 Objective To investigate how the anatomy of variant atlas vertebra impacts on the strategy used to place pedicle screws used to treat atlantoaxial instability. Methods The study enrolled patients with cervical instability who had a posterior arch pedicle height <3.5 mm at the anchor point, a vertebral artery groove height <3.5 mm, or both ...
