Percutaneous pedicle screw fixation for lumbar posterolateral instrumented fusion is an attractive alternative to standard open techniques. The technical aspects of this procedure can be challenging and even frustrating when first learning the technique. However, once these techniques have been mastered, they offer a safe, less invasive, less traumatic, more aesthetic method for performing fusion. The authors have outlined a step-by-step method for performing this surgery, and include a case series that demonstrates excellent results in patients treated with this procedure.
经皮椎弓根螺钉固定用于腰椎后外侧器械辅助融合术是标准开放技术的一种有吸引力的替代方法。当首次学习该技术时,此手术的技术层面可能具有挑战性,甚至令人沮丧。然而,一旦掌握了这些技术,它们就为进行融合提供了一种安全、侵入性较小、创伤较小、更美观的方法。作者概述了进行该手术的分步方法,并包括一个病例系列,展示了接受该手术治疗的患者取得的优异结果。
