Abstract:
:A technique is described in which spinal fracture repositioning, decompression, and stabilization are achieved by a combination of hook-rod and pedicle screw fixation. This straightforward technique is useful for performing acute decompression in patients with partial neurological deficits and multisystem injuries. A laminectomy allows for placement of a stiffer fixation system, and it improves the insufficient canal clearance obtained when performing annulotaxis alone.
