Abstract:
Transpedicular screw instrumentation allows good fixation to the unstable spine after wide laminectomy procedure. The authors experienced 30 cases of transpedicular screw instrumentation in lumbar spine surgery, which had been operated from November, 1989 and had follow up at least for 6 months. We evaluated and reviewed the advantages and problems of transpedicular screw instrumentation through our experiences and literatures.
