Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: From biomechanics, to summarize the application advances of metal screw implantation intemal fixation in cervical diseases. METHODS: A total of 22 articles of biomechanical analysis and clinical application of cervical screw implantation published between 2000 and 2008 were collected to analyze the anatomic basis, biomechanics, clinical application and advantages and disadvantage of cervical screw implantation. RESULTS: Lateral mass screw, pedicle screw internal fixation, and transarticular screw fixation can enhance biomechanical stability of cervical diseases. CONCLUSION: Screw implantation is an effective lower cervical intemal fixation technique and can be used in lower cervical instability and defects caused by various factors, in particular posterior column partial defect.
