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" ...
The spines were then tested in three conditions: 1) intact, 2) after LS (T11–L3), 3) SS (T12–L2) instrumentation with pedicle screws and rods, and 4) short segment instrumentation plus cement augmentation of the fracture level (SSC). LS instrumentation was found to significantly reduce ...
All patients had single-segment fractures, including one case at the T11 level, seven cases at the T12 level, 20 cases at the L1 level, nine cases at the L2 level, and four cases at the L3 level. There were 26 cases (63.4%) of type A3.1 fracture, 10 cases (24.4%) of type A...

To evaluate the biomechanical properties of short-segment Schanz screw implanted in an oblique downward direction for the treatment of lumbar 1 burst fracture using a finite element analysis. Methods The Universal Spine System (USS) fixation model for adjacent upper and lower vertebrae (T12 and L2)...
The upper part of the L2 laminae was also removed. The exposed ligamentum flavum was removed. The dorsal and lateral aspect of the dura remained intact with good bulging. Further exploration of extruded cement was not performed as there was no dural compression and the amount of cement leakage...
This study describes a case of iatrogenic abdominal aortic rupture at the level of L2 during transpedicular bone grafting for the first time. Case Report: A 55 year-old male patient suffered from a T12 vertebral body mild compression fracture and an L2 vertebral body burst fracture due to ...

Computed tomography scans and magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar spine demonstrated a burst fracture of the L2 vertebrae and moderate compression in the anterior portion of the thecal sac due to the fracture fragment. Because of the stabile nature of the L2 burst fracture and lack of ...
Contiguous lumbar spine burst fractures are very rare in occurrence. Though burst fractures are managed surgically to provide stability, the surgical approaches depend on the individual fracture pattern, degree of spinal canal occlusion, and neurological status.Sai Preeth...
