SPINAL FUSION WITH THE KLUGER TRANSPEDICULAR FIXATION SYSTEM PRELIMINARY REPORT
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 1990, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
The posterior segmental fixation system gives adequate stability in unstable spinal disorders such as degenerative instabilities, fractures, spnodylolisthesis and tumors. Roy Camlle was the one who introduced the pedicular screw fixation. We reviewed 30 cases operated with the Kluger Transpedicular Fixation System with gool relief of pain and without major complaints. The follow up varied from 2-30 months. The Kluger system is a good system for a short traject fixation, it is not so bulky like other systmes. The indication is very important for the end-result.
