Single-Stage Posterior Transpedicular Corpectomy and 360-Degree Reconstruction for Thoracic and Lumbar Burst Fractures: Technical Nuances and Outcomes

Conclusion Single-stage posterior corpectomy and fixation is a safe and effective approach for thoracic and lumbar burst fractures. It provides excellent 360-degree reconstruction in a single surgical stage with satisfactory results in terms of kyphosis reduction, biomechanical stability, and reduced invasiveness. Spinal navigation represents a fundamental tool to overcome some anatomical limits of the presented technique.
