L1 thoracolumbar burst fracture with retropulsion and spinal cord compression. Circumferential Stabilization of the Thoracolumbar Junction Via Posterior-Only Approach for the Management of Burst Fractures Operative compared with nonoperative treatment of a thoracolumbar burst fracture without neurological deficit...
In the treatment of thoracolumbar burst fractures, long segment (LS) posterior instrumentation two levels above and below the fracture level has been used. In our study, burst fractures were produced at L1 in eight fresh frozen human cadaveric spines. The spines were then tested in three ...
Noun1.compression fracture- fracture in which the bone collapses (especially in short bones such as vertebrae) fracture,break- breaking of hard tissue such as bone; "it was a nasty fracture"; "the break seems to have been caused by a fall" ...
@SarahGen-- I am glad you are doing well. I had the same fracture, from a bad fall. My L1 (lumbar 1) vertebrae was fractured, I also had a fusion procedure done like you. Unfortunately, my fracture brought on more complications. I was hospitalized again soon after the surgery because...
Lateral radiograph (a) shows a fracture of the L1 vertebral body. On the axial (d) computed tomography, the retropulsion of bone fragments into the spinal canal is evident. Magnetic resonance imaging of T2-weighted image (b, c) also showed that bone fragments had retropulsed into the ...
Moreover, they found a significant correlation between thoracic spine, rather than L1, and the severity of neurologic deficit. Most studies have emphasized that spinal canal stenosis and posterior ligamentous complex injury after a fracture lead to neurologic damage [13–16]. However, few reports ...
In L1, the posterior wall defect of the burst fracture allowed leakage into the intraspinal canal. The presence of an intravertebral cleft can potentially lead to cement leakage into intervertebral disc space because of their connection.5 The safety of vertebroplasty in treating burst fracture is ...
In conclusion, short-segment Schanz screw implanted in an oblique downward direction with different angles did not significantly change the maximum stress of screws and the displacement of the injured vertebra defect area. This is a safe method to treat severe L1 burst fracture. ...
The interpedicular distance (IPD) was evaluated by comparing the distance between the pedicles of the index vertebrae with the distance between the pedicles of the adjacent vertebrae above and below the fracture. VBCR (Vertebral Body Compression Ratio) was computed as the ratio of the anterior ...
starch hydrolysates, which include dextrins, and maltodextrins, and the like, water insoluble plastically deforming materials such as microcrystalline cellulose or other cellulosic derivatives, water-insoluble brittle fracture materials such as dicalcium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate and the like and mixture...
