Accuracy of ‘O arm’ guided pedicle screw placement in osteoporotic spine with the ‘precious pedicle’
Introduction: Osteoporosis is a global burden with the prevelance ranging from 15 to 20% in women and 4–7% in men across the globe. This is the age group which most commonly presents in spine clinic with pathologies requiring pedicle screw fixation ...
