A novel UHMWPE anchor for improving the pullout resistance of pedicle screws

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionThe ability to maintain bone purchase and resist pullout is considered a basic requirement for pedicle screws. However, poor bone density or oversized pilot holes can increase the risk of screw loosening and pullout.

Analyzing Pedicle Screw Strength with Finite Element Method in Relation to Vertebral Bone Properties

open access: yes
Vertebral fractures are increasingly prevalent in our aging population. Conservative treatments and minimally invasive surgeries are standard, but posterior fixation systems like pedicle-screw-rod constructs face failure risks such as screw loosening ...

Preoperative and follow-up variations of psoas major muscle are related to S1 screw loosening in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background It was reported the paraspinal muscle played an important role in spinal stability. The preoperative paraspinal muscle was related to S1 screw loosening. But the relationship between preoperative and postoperative change of psoas major muscle (

Influence of the screw augmentation technique and a diameter increase on pedicle screw fixation in the osteoporotic spine : pullout versus fatigue testing

open access: yes, 2014
Purpose: For posterior spinal stabilization, loosening of pedicle screws at the bone-screw interface is a clinical complication, especially in the osteoporotic population.
