Biomechanical impact of C2 pedicle screw length in an atlantoaxial fusion construct

BACKGROUND: Posterior, atlantoaxial (AA) fusions of the cervical spine may include either standard (26 mm) or short (16 mm) C2 pedicle screws. This manuscript focused on an in vitro biomechanical comparison of standard versus short C2 pedicle screws to perform posterior C1-C2 AA fusions. METHODS: Tw...
