How to improve the safety of bicortical pedicle screw insertion in the thoracolumbar veterbrae with osteoporotic: Analysis base on three-dimensional CT reconstruction of patients in prone position
Abstract:Background: Three-dimensional CT reconstruction of prone position could measure the relative position between the Great vessels and the thoracolumbar vertebrae. The Great vessels positions of the thoracic and lumbar segments were studied to improve the accuracy of pedicle screw insertion, reduce the risk of vascular injury. Methods: Twenty-four adults participated in the present study. Three-dimensional reconstruction of thoracolumbar (T9–L3) CT was performed in the prone and supine positions. The relative dis… Show more
