The use of radiolucent pedicle fixation in degenerative lumbar spine surgery

Radiolucent pedicle screw fixation has become popularized in the field of oncological spine surgery owing to its ability to provide superior post-operative planning for adjuvant radiotherapy and radiological monitoring of tumour progression. We present the case of a 45-year-old female with degenerat...

description Radiolucent pedicle screw fixation has become popularized in the field of oncological spine surgery owing to its ability to provide superior post-operative planning for adjuvant radiotherapy and radiological monitoring of tumour progression. We present the case of a 45-year-old female with degenerative spine pathology who underwent L4/5 and L5/S1 posterior lumbar interbody fusion with carbon fibre reinforced-polyetheretherketone pedicle screw fixation. The authors highlight the potential advantages of radiolucent pedicle fixation, which may translate into the degenerative spine surgery domain.
