Biomechanical Analysis of Pedicle Screw Fixation for Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures

By Rihof Lab|2020-07-27T15:51:05+00:00May 1st, 2016|

Publication: Orthopedics Date: May 2016 Authors: McDonnell M, Shah KN, Paller DJ, Thakur NA, Koruprolu S, Palumbo MA, Daniels AH Link to Full Text Abstract Treatment of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures remains controversial. Long-segment pedicle screw constructs may be stiffer and impart greater forces on adjacent segments compared with short-segment constructs, which may affect clinical performance [...]

Locking buttons increase fatigue life of locking plates in a segmental bone defect model

By Rihof Lab|2020-07-17T10:54:16+00:00March 1st, 2013|

Publication: Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research Date: March 2013 Authors: Tompkins M, Paller DJ, Moore DC, Crisco JJ, Terek RM Link to Full Text Abstract BACKGROUND: Durability of plate fixation is important in delayed union. Although locking plates result in stronger constructs, it is not known if locking affects the fatigue life of a plate. [...]
