Objective Posterior short-segment fixation (4-screw construct= 4S) is the conventional
surgical technique for thoracolumbar fractures. The effect of adding two intermediate pedicle …

The most common fractures in the spine take place in the thoracolumbar region. Currently
there is no consensus regarding optimum treatment. Objective Analyze the current medical …

Objective To compare the von Mises stresses of the internal fixation devices among different
short segment pedicle screw fixation techniques to treat thoracic 12 vertebral fractures …

Objective The thoracolumbar (TL) area marks the transition of the rigid thoracic spine into
the mobile lumbar spine, and it is considered to be the weakest part of the spine. This study …
