Biomechanical stability analysis of transpedicular screws combined with sublaminar hook-rod system using the finite element method

CONCLUSION: Stiffness analysis showed comparable stiffness between the tested and proposed stabilization construct. Stress analysis showed luxation tendency of the cranially placed hooks, which would most likely lead to system failure.PMID:34472735
