lumbar pedicle screw fixation
Lumbar pedicle screw fixation is a surgical technique used to stabilize the spine by inserting screws into the pedicles of the lumbar vertebrae. Its main functions include providing immobilization to the spine, correcting deformities, and facilitating fusion between vertebrae. Technological features of this procedure involve the use of high-grade materials, precision engineering, and advanced imaging techniques to ensure accurate placement of screws. Applications of lumbar pedicle screw fixation are varied, including the treatment of spinal fractures, spinal instability, and certain spinal deformities like scoliosis.
