Prospective clinical and radiological analysis of children with complex cervical deformities for the safety of cervical pedicle screw insertion. To analyse the possibility, safety and efficacy of cervical pedicle screw insertion in complex pediatric cervical deformities, where conventional stabilisation techniques would not have provided rigid fixation.Study design
Objectives
Prospective analysis of computerised tomogram images of 376 normal pediatric cervical pedicles Although the usage of cervical pedicle screws (CPS) in adults has become established, the feasibility of its application in children has not been studied. There are no in-vivo studies that define the normal pediatric cervical pedicle morphometrics and its changes with growth and development of the child.Study Design
