Article Synopsis
- The study aims to create a simplified classification system for endplate injuries using 3D CT imaging and to investigate how these injuries relate to vertebral space and other factors in patients with thoracolumbar fractures.
- Researchers analyzed a cohort of patients with varying degrees of endplate injury and collected data on vertebral height, disc degeneration, and healing over time using methods like ANOVA.
- Results indicated that moderate to severe endplate injuries significantly impact long-term disc degeneration and spinal alignment, suggesting these injuries can help predict patient outcomes and treatment strategies.*

Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of using inclined-long pedicle screws combined with interbody fusion for treating thoracolumbar fractures with disc injuries in 28 patients over a period of five years.
- The patient group comprised 22 males and 6 females, with injuries primarily resulting from falls and traffic accidents; their spinal injuries were categorized using the ASIA scale.
- The findings indicated that the surgery generally had a reasonable operation time and blood loss, with successful recovery and no major surgical complications reported.
Background: To compare the clinical and radiological outcomes of monoplanar screws (MSs) versus hybrid fixed axial and polyaxial screws (HSs) in percutaneous short-segment intermediate screw fixation (PSISF) for traumatic thoracolumbar burst fractures (TTBFs) in patients without neurologic impairment.
Methods: A consecutive series of 100 patients with single-segment TTBFs and no neurologic impairment who underwent PSISF with 6 monoplanar screws (MS group) or correct were retrospectively enrolled. The demographic data, radiologic evaluation indicators, perioperative indicators and clinical assessment indicators were analysed between the MS group and HS group.
