title: [Anterior plating of the cervical spine with the hollow screw-plate system of titanium].
abstract: A hollow screw-plate system made of titanium for osteosynthesis of the cervical spine is presented. This system is designed to achieve a stable fixation for fusion of the vertebra. The posterior corticalis of the vertebral body need not and indeed cannot be perforated by the screws. Loosening of the screws is not longer possible because of growth of bone into the lumen of the screw and direct attachment of bone to the surface of the screw.
