Illiac screws in Lumbo-Sacro-Iliac Fixation Lumbosacral Pathologies: Our experience

Vivek Rameshchandra Patel

and

Rahul Gupta

Fortis Hospital, India

Background:

Lumbo-Sacro-Pelvic Fixation may be required

for complex lumbosacral pathologies where L5 or S1 screws

cannot be placed. Iliac screw technique is adopted in treating

certain typical conditions requiring long segment fixation such

as in correction of adult Scoliosis, reduction of high-grade

Spondylolisthesis, Sacral Fractures and surgical treatment of

sacral tumors.

Methods:

We describe our experience at our institution in

which polyaxial pedicle screws construct has been successfully

used.

Results:

No instrumentation failure was noted. Continuity of

spine and pelvis was well established with the instrumentation.

Patients were followed up for 6- 12 months.

Conclusion:

Lumbo-Sacro-Pelvic-Fixation using iliac screw has

been shown to improve biomechanical strength and seems to

provide acceptable clinical result. Further followup studies with

long term clinical outcomes will be recommended
