Abstract:
Application of the techniques of pedicle screw fixation in t horacolumbar spine has forcefully promoted the development of spinal surgery. Th e key to the techniques is that the pedicle screw insertion must be located into the sole exact routeway of the three-dimensional-space, that is, into the inn er vertebral body through the pedicle according to the exact arrow plane angle a nd horizontal plane angle. Recently great development has been made in the resea rch on the techniques of pedicle screw insertion in thoracolumbar spine, especia lly in the supervising means during operation. The means have been developed fro m the traditional X-ray perspective or photograph apposition to the application of computer-assisted technique. This paper reviews and discusses the current d evelopment and prospects in the research on the techniques of pedicle screw inse rtion in thoracolumbar spine.
