Study Design

Prospective analysis of computerised tomogram images of 376 normal pediatric cervical pedicles

Objectives and Summary of Background Data

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.
