We evaluate the feasibility and potential advantages of spinal CT navigation in the placement of pedicle screws at the cervicothoracic junction in the sitting position to counteract the anatomy-related limitations of 2D fluoroscopy.
We retrospectively analyze the data from 15 patients who underwent CT-based navigation-guided placement of a total of 36 pedicle screws at the cervicothoracic junction in the sitting position.
CT-based spinal navigation is a useful method in increasing accuracy of pedicle screw instrumentation in the sitting position, successfully counteracting the anatomy-related limitations of 2D fluoroscopy at the cervicothoracic junction.
CT-based navigation-guided placement of pedicle screws at the cervicothoracic junction in the sitting position proved to be an accurate, safe, and user-friendly method.
我们评估了在坐位下经颈椎胸椎连接部脊柱 CT 导航辅助置钉的可行性和潜在优势，以克服二维透视在该部位因解剖结构限制所致的不足。
我们回顾性分析了 15 例患者共 36 枚颈椎胸椎连接部椎弓根螺钉置钉的 CT 导航引导下置钉数据。
基于 CT 的脊柱导航是一种提高坐位下椎弓根螺钉置钉准确性的有效方法，成功克服了颈椎胸椎连接部二维透视的解剖结构限制。
基于 CT 的导航引导下坐位颈椎胸椎连接部椎弓根螺钉置钉是一种准确、安全且易于使用的方法。
