Placement of Thoracic Pedicle Screws [PDF]
JBJS Essential Surgical Techniques, 2016 Thoracic pedicle screws have become the spinal anchor of choice because of the superior biomechanics of this technique. It is widely used for the treatment of scoliosis, spinal deformity (such as kyphosis), trauma, tumors, infection, and other pathologies.

The Effect of Thoracolumbar Pedicle Isthmus on Pedicle Screw Accuracy [PDF]
Global Spine Journal, 2019 Study Design: Retrospective analysis. Objectives: Aberrant pedicle screws can cause serious neurovascular complications. We propose that a predominant factor of pedicle screw breach is the vertebral anatomy at a given spinal level.

Biomechanical comparison of cervical transfacet pedicle screws versus pedicle screws
Chinese Medical Journal, 2008 Transfacet pedicle screws provide another alternative for standard pedicle screw placement for plate fixation in the lumbar spine. However, few studies looking at transfacet pedicle screw fixation in the cervical spine are available. Therefore, cervical transfacet pedicle screw fixation and standard pedicle screw fixation techniques were ...

Brain and Spine, 2023 There is ample evidence that higher accuracy can be achieved in thoracolumbar pedicle screw placement by using spinal navigation. Still, to date, the evidence regarding the influence of the use of navigation on the screw diameter to pedicle width ratio remains limited.The aim of this study was to investigate the implications of navigation in ...

Autonomous lumbar spine pedicle screw planning using machine learning: A validation study
Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2021 Introduction: Several techniques for pedicle screw placement have been described including freehand techniques, fluoroscopy assisted, computed tomography (CT) guidance, and robotics. Image-guided surgery offers the potential to combine the benefits of CT
