A finite element analysis on comparing the stability of different posterior fixation methods for thoracic total en bloc spondylectomy

Abstract Objective To compare the spinal stability with different fixation methods after thoracic TES using finite element analysis Methods The spinal finite element model was established from a healthy volunteer, and the validity was verified. The models of T8 thoracic total en bloc spondylectomy (...
