transpedicular screw
The transpedicular screw is a surgical implant designed for spinal stabilization. Its main functions include providing internal fixation and support to the spine, which is crucial after surgeries for conditions like fractures, deformities, or tumors. Technological features of the transpedicular screw include a threaded design that allows for secure anchoring into the vertebrae, a polished surface to minimize tissue irritation, and compatibility with various spinal implant systems. This device is commonly used in spinal fusion procedures, where it helps maintain the stability of the spine while the vertebrae fuse together. Its versatility makes it suitable for different parts of the spine, including the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions.
