Time-dependent behaviour of bone accentuates loosening in the fixation of fractures using bone-screw systems [PDF]
AimsLoosening is a well-known complication in the fixation of fractures using devices such as locking plates or unilateral fixators. It is believed that high strains in the bone at the bone-screw interface can initiate loosening, which can result in ...

Introduction: Pedicle screws (PSs) or lateral mass screws (LMSs) are used in posterior cervical spine fixation. The former are more firmly fixed but are associated with the risk of neurovascular injury and should be inserted using intraoperative imaging ...

The vertebral body’s Hounsfield unit (HU) value can credibly reflect patients’ bone mineral density (BMD). Given that poor bone-screw integration initially triggers screw loosening and regional differences in BMD and strength in the vertebral body exist,

Finite element method study: the effect of insertion torque and angle on pedicle screw loosening [PDF]
Pedicle screws are widely used for the treatment of spinal instability by spine fusion. This treatment can be performed at any level in the spine (cervical, thoracic or lumbar) and prevents any movement between the fused vertebrae.

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 (

Bilateral dual iliac screws in spinal deformity correction surgery
Background Surgery for adult spinal deformity requires optimal patient-specific spino-pelvic-lower extremity alignment. Distal fixation in thoracolumbar spinal deformity surgery is crucial when arthrodesis to the sacrum is indicated.

We evaluated the feasibility of using the Hounsfield unit (HU) value of the vertebral body to predict screw loosening in the thoracic spine. Consecutive patients who underwent thoracic spinal fusion surgery (from 2014 to 2020) were retrospectively ...
