Pedicle Screw Lumbar Spine: Advanced Spinal Stabilization Surgery

The pedicle screw lumbar spine is a revolutionary medical device used primarily in spinal surgery. Its main function is to provide stabilization and support to the lumbar spine, which is essential for treating various spinal conditions such as fractures, spinal instability, and severe degenerative disc disease. Technological features of the pedicle screw system include precision engineering, biocompatible materials that minimize the risk of infection, and a modular design that allows for customization based on the patient's anatomy. These screws are inserted into the pedicles of the lumbar vertebrae, and once in place, they can be used in conjunction with rods and other fixation devices to align and immobilize the spine, facilitating healing and reducing pain. The applications of the pedicle screw lumbar spine are diverse, including but not limited to, spinal fusion surgeries, correction of scoliosis, and reconstruction after tumor removal or trauma.
