Comparison of hinged and contoured rods for occipitocervical arthrodesis in adults: A clinical study

Comparison of hinged and contoured rods for occipitocervical arthrodesis in adults: A clinical study

Introduction: A rigid construct that employs an occipital plate and upper cervical screws and rods is the current standard treatment for craniovertebral junction (CVJ) instability. A rod is contoured to accommodate the occipitocervical angle. Fatigue failure has been associated these acute bends. Hi...
