Solid and hollow pedicle screws affect the electrical resistance: A potential source of error with stimulus-evoked electromyography

BACKGROUND: Although stimulus evoked electromyography (EMG) is commonly used to confirm the accuracy of pedicle screw placement. There are no studies to differentiate between solid screws and hollow screws to the electrical resistance of pedicle screws. We speculate that the electrical resistance of...
