Screw augmentation for spinopelvic fixation in neuromuscular spine deformities: technical note

Abstract: We used sacral pedicle screw augmentation as a reliable tool to strengthen spinopelvic fixation in neuromuscular scoliosis without increasing the intraoperative morbidity. In our practice, sacral screw augmentation can definitely enhance PO correction obtained by a posterior procedure.

“…Isolated S1-pedicle screw fixation is reported to have a high rate of pullout failure or breakage (up to 44%), and pseudarthrosis (up to 33%) (1)(2)(3). Some modified techniques have been introduced to improve the fixation strength and decrease the failure rate, including traditional iliac fixation, S1 cemented augmentation, S1 bicortical screws and S2 alar screw fixation (4)(5)(6). Traditional iliac screw fixation has improved resistance to pullout (7).…”

“…Screw-in stabilizers are also often required for patients with neuromuscular disorders to enhance pelvic stability. Bis–GMA composite resins, for example, have been used to improve the stability of the screws in the osteoporotic bone as reported by Dubory et al, 2015 [ 38 ]. The Bis-GMA has optimal mechanical properties in the absence of exothermic reactions during polymerization, which are instead typical of other screw augmentation techniques that use polymethylmethacrylate (PMM) [ 39 ].…”
