Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

In the surgical treatment of osteoporotic spine fractures, there is no clear recommendation, which treatment is best for the individual patient with vertebra plana and/or neurological deficit requiring instrumentation. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes after dorsal or 360° instrumentation of osteoporotic fractures of the thoracolumbar spine in a cohort of patients representing clinical reality.
