Biomechanical evaluation of pedicle screw stability after 360-degree turnback from full insertion: effects of screw shape, pilot hole profile and bone density

Intraoperative pedicle screw depth adjustment after initial insertion, including both forward and backward adjustments, is sometimes necessary to facilitate rod application and ensure that the screw is in the correct position, which is determined by intraoperative fluoroscopy. Adjusting the screw wi...
