Hardware integrity and alignment after surgery are typically followed with standing radiography, where pedicle screw loosening may be incidentally identified but the clinical significance of which is often unclear. This study aimed to identify the incidence and implications of pedicle ...
However, there is a fair chance of pedicle screw loosening after surgery that causes unsatisfactory recovery. Therefore, a nonradioactive method will be helpful to check the fixation statuses earlier and more regularly during the first 3 months. To implant a sensor in human body to measure ...

The technique is designed to immediately stabilize polymer-augmented pedicle screws (PAS) in deficient bone and avoid complications of loosening pedicle screws at the bone-screw interface, especially in osteoporotic patients. A polymer sleeve was designed as augmentation to improve screw anchorage after ...
Hounsfield units of the vertebral body and pedicle as predictors of pedicle screw loosening after degenerative lumbar spine surgery. CONCLUSIONS Vertebral body HUs alone are insufficient to accurately evaluate the risk of pedicle screw loosening. Therefore, it is important to collect both ... F Xu,...

However, the risk of pedicle wall violation will be in- creased using a larger diameter screw. Pedicle screw loosening is a frequent complaint [19]. Stiffness is defined as the ability of an object to resist de- formation, and predicts the initial holding capacity of the pedicle screw. The...
