The Effect of Rod Pattern, Outrigger, and Multiple Screw-Rod Constructs for Surgical Stabilization of the 3-Column Destabilized Cervical Spine - A Biomechanical Analysis and Introduction of a Novel Technique

Objective Anterior-only reconstructions for cervical multilevel corpectomies are prone to fail under continuous mechanical loading. This study sought to define the mechanical characteristics of different constructs in reducing a range of motion (ROM) of the 3-column destabilized cervical spine, incl...
