title: [Posterior percutaneous arthrodesis under CT guidance after surgical anterior arthrodesis: a new technique].
abstract: Transfacet screws may be useful for stabilizing segments reconstructed with bone graft or cages, the role of supplementary posterior fixation, particularly minimally invasive techniques such as transfacetar percutaneous screws is relevant. To benefit from a mechanical fixation after anterior arthrodesis without the inconveniences of the open classical posterior surgical intervention, we have developed a new procedure performed under local anesthesia and CT guidance and based on the intra-articular application of screws. This study was designed to demonstrate the feasibility of using a CT-scan to perform posterior arthrodesis of the spine under local anesthesia.
