Biomechanical Assessment of Vertebroplasty Combined with Cement-Augmented Screw Fixation for Lumbar Burst Fractures: A Finite Element Analysis
A hybrid fixation method, using a combination of vertebroplasty and cement-augmented screws, has been demonstrated as a useful technique for securing osteoporotic burst fractures. The purpose of this study was to assess changes in the range of motion (ROM) and stress in the spine after treating a lu...
