Reinforcement of Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation with Hydroxyapatite Granules in Patients with Osteoporotic Spine: Biomechanical Performance and Clinical Outcomes

Reinforcement of Percutaneous Pedicle Screw Fixation with Hydroxyapatite Granules in Patients with Osteoporotic Spine: Biomechanical Performance and Clinical Outcomes

In percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) fixation of the osteoporotic spine, rigid screw fixation obtaining strong stabilization is important for achieving successful treatment outcomes. However, in patients with severe osteoporosis, it is difficult to obtain PPS fixation with sufficient stability. PPS f...
