Traumatic hyperextension-distraction injuries of the thoracolumbar spine: a technical note on surgical positioning
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "European Spine Journal"
DOI: 10.1007/s00586-019-05917-2
Abstract: AbstractPurposeHyperextension-distraction type injury of the thoracolumbar spine is an unstable fracture pattern that generally necessitates surgical stabilization by posterior instrumentation. Care must be taken when positioning these patients from supine to prone due to the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00586-020-06590-6
Abstract: Intervertebral vacuum phenomenon (IVP) is mainly seen as a sign of degenerative disc diseases. Although studies have shown that IVP also occurs after traumatic injuries to the spine, its clinical relevance in spinal fractures remains… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2017.08.034
Abstract: Highlights • Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma’s vertebral involvement is quite common.• Diagnosis of the non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas that are localized in thoracolumbar spine often is missed or is delayed.• It was purposed to report two cases with non-Hodgkin’s… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2019.07.049
Abstract: Currently available musculoskeletal inverse-dynamics thoracolumbar spine models are entirely based on data from adults and might therefore not be applicable for simulations in children and adolescents. In addition, these models lack lower extremities, which are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2021.05.035
Abstract: BACKGROUND Percutaneous-short segment screw fixation (SSSF) without bone fusion has proven to be a safe and effective modality for thoracolumbar spine fractures (TLSFs). When fracture consolidation is confirmed, pedicle screws are no longer essential, but… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/0954411917719740
Abstract: Biomechanical studies that involve normal, injured or stabilized human spines are sometimes difficult to perform on large samples due to limited access to cadaveric human spines and biological variability. Finite element models alleviate these limitations… read more here.
