Area of Science:

  • Spine surgery
  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Minimally invasive spinal techniques

Background:

  • Spinal fusion aims to achieve bony union between vertebrae.
  • Minimally invasive surgical techniques are increasingly favored for spinal procedures.
  • Anterior and posterior approaches are common for spinal reconstruction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of suprafascial pedicle screw stabilization combined with anterior reconstruction.
  • To determine the fusion success rate of this combined surgical approach.
  • To assess the utility of intraoperative fluoroscopy and Shanz screws in evaluating fusion.

Main Methods:

  • Review of eighty consecutive cases undergoing suprafascial pedicle screw stabilization.
  • Percutaneous screw placement guided by intraoperative fluoroscopy after anterior interbody grafting.

  • Assessment of intradiscal fusions during hardware removal using Shanz screws and fluoroscopy.

    • Main Results:

    • A 96% successful fusion rate was achieved in the reviewed cases.
    • The combination of anterior mini-open and posterior minimally invasive approaches was utilized.
    • Intraoperative fluoroscopy and Shanz screws were used to confirm fusion.

    Conclusions:

    • Suprafascial pedicle screw stabilization combined with anterior reconstruction is a highly successful method for spinal fusion.
    • This combined approach offers a minimally invasive option with a high fusion rate.
    • The technique facilitates effective spinal stabilization and fusion assessment.
