THE USE OF TRANSPEDICULAR INTERNAL FIXATOR IN THE UNSTABLE THORACOLUMBAR VERTEBRAL FRACTURES
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 1990, Vol 1, Issue 4
Abstract
Transpedicular internal fixation is used in six unstable thoracolumbar vertebral fractures in our department between My 1989 and December 1989. Operation was performed under image intensifier control. Early mobilitazion was begun postoperatively. We think that early results of this treatment seems satisfactory because accurate reduction of fracture is obtained with rigid fixation. Also another advantage is the fixation of a short segment of vertebral column.
