[Expanded trans-pedicular spongiosa grafting--dorsal approach to filling of the intervertebral spaces with cancellous bone].
Internal fixation of dorsolumbar spinal fractures can be accomplished by dorsal plating or internal fixator. So far, the technique of transpedicular grafting has been applied to fill the vertebral body with cancellous bone. In this paper, we present a new technique of extended transpedicular bone grafting to fill the intervertebral space also. By this means, the disadvantage of secondary loss of height after removal of the metal implants can be prevented.
