Utility of Cement Augmentation via Percutaneous Fenestrated Pedicle Screws for Stabilization of Cancer-Related Spinal Instability

BACKGROUND: Cancer patients experience pathological fractures and the typical poor bone quality frequently complicates stabilization. Methods for overcoming screw failure include utilization of fenestrated screws that permit the injection of bone cement into the vertebral body to augment fixation. O...
