This study addresses a critical clinical challenge: the management of symptomatic pseudomeningocele (PMC) causing spinal cord compression following spinal surgery. Traditional treatments face limitations in efficacy and invasiveness. Here, we propose an innovative minimally invasive technique using central venous catheterization under ultrasound ...

Numerical simulation of bone screw induced pretension: The cases of under-tapping and conical profile [PDF]
Even though screw induced pretension impacts the holding strength of bone screws, its implementation into the numerical simulation of the pullout phenomenon remains a problem with no apparent solution.
