Spinal canal decompression in traumatic thoracolumbar burst fractures: posterior distraction rods versus transpedicular screw fixation.

abstract：:Not all fractures heal well or rapidly in the adult skeleton, and basic scientists and clinicians continue to search for ways to make fractures heal more predictably. It is a fundamental tenet of orthopaedics that skeletal injury is followed by inflammation and that this inflammatory response is the first stage in a s...
