<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Autologous bone graft remains the gold standard by which substitutes are compared in spine fusion surgery. The utilization of substitutes, either as (1) an extender for spinal constructs or (2) alternative to minimize morbidity while maximizing outcomes, is changing. Moreover, current procedural technology (CPT) code 20939 became effective 2018 defining marrow aspirate grafting, surgery only. Changes complex landscape grafting materials have prompted ISASS provide category...
Background: Three-dimensional (3D) computer-assisted navigation (CAN) has emerged as a potential alternative to 2-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopy in the surgical placement of spinal instrumentation. Recently, 3D-CAN systems have improved significantly their ability provide real-time anatomical referencing while shortening registration and set-up time. A novel system navigation, Machine-Vision Image-Guided Surgery (MvIGS; 7D Surgical, Toronto, Canada) was cleared by US Food Drug Administration,...
Objectives: To compare the strength of fixation percutaneous screw versus plate/screw in a paired cadaver model OTA 41-B3 (Schatzker type II) split-depression fractures lateral tibial plateau. Methods: Six matched pairs cadaveric knees were acquired. An fracture was created all specimens using standardized method. One specimen from each pair fixed with screws, and other construct. All underwent augmentation central metaphyseal defect calcium phosphate. Mean residual displacement (depression)...
