Study Design: We analyzed the anatomy of C3-C6 cervical pedicles with reconstructed computed tomography images.
Objectives: The objective of the study was to estimate the feasibility and to understand the surgical anatomy in order to reduce pedicle penetration.
Summary Of Background Data: It is necessary to minimize pedicle penetration by anatomic analysis of cervical pedicles.
This article is a retrospective study of 13 cases of scaphoid non-union in skeletally immature patients. For the fracture fixation, three cases of stable fibrous union with minimal sclerosis, without deformity or cystic changes were considered for the percutaneous Herbert screw fixation. Ten cases were managed with the open reduction and internal fixation with or without bone grafting.

Methods: Nineteen patients with unstable pelvic ring injuries were included in this retrospective study. All patients were followed up for at least 1 year, and their mean age was 43 years.
Objectives: Thoracic myelopathy secondary to OLF is a rare disease described almost exclusively in Japanese patients. Few series of OLF in South Korean subjects has previously been published. This study is to describe the clinical and radiologic aspects, as well as surgical outcomes in a group of South Korean patients.
