Bone Cement Augmented Transpedicular Screw Fixation Versus Cannulated Screws Fixation in Osteoporotic Spine

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Bone Cement Augmented Transpedicular Screw Fixation, Cannulated Screws Fixation, Osteoporotic Spine

In brief

This study aims to compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of bone-cement-augmented transpedicular screw fixation versus cannulated pedicle screw fixation in patients with osteoporotic spines requiring posterior instrumentation, with respect to implant stability (loosening/pull-out), pain relief, functional recovery, and complication rates.
