Experimental ex vivo characterization of the biomechanical effects of laminectomy and posterior fixation of the lumbo-sacral spine [PDF]
Laminectomy and posterior fixation are well-established surgical techniques to decompress nervous structures in case of lumbar spinal stenosis. While laminectomy is suspected to increase the instability of the spine, posterior fixation is associated with

Efficacy and safety of lateral lumbar interbody fusion for lumbar degenerative diseases with or without auxiliary posterior fixation: a meta-analysis and systematic review [PDF]
Background There is no conclusive evidence from evidence-based medicine that clarifies whether the efficacy and safety of lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) differ significantly with or without auxiliary posterior fixation.

Defining a Safe Zone for Percutaneous Screw Fixation of Posterior Malleolar Fractures
Posterior malleolar fractures require fixation to confer stability to the ankle. Although some have suggested that fractures involving less than 25% of the articular surface require no intervention, estimation of malleolar size on plain imaging is ...

Lateral rectus posterior fixation suture [PDF]
Some authors have suggested that a posterior fixation suture on the lateral rectus muscle is ineffective because of the muscle's long arc of contact with the globe. We report a small case series of patients successfully treated using a lateral rectus posterior fixation suture.The surgical database of one surgeon (JMH) was reviewed for all patients ...
