Due to the lack of skin laxity, dependent anatomical location and the importance of the deeper structures, a systematic approach tailored to the individual defect should be considered for these types of reconstructions. In our case report, we present a reconstructive solution of a chronic defect of the back caused by resection of an ulceration.

A novel method to judge the safe position of C2 lamina screw with double holes.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord

November 2024

1Department of Spinal Surgery, Ningbo No.6 Hospital, NingBo, Zhejiang Province, 315040, China.

Background: To evaluate the feasibility of C2 laminar screw (C2LS) fixation assisted by double holes and to explore a novel method for judging its safe positioning.

Methods: The Digital Imaging in Communications format data of 25 C2 vertebrae specimens were obtained by computed tomography thin-slice scanning, and the data were imported into Mimics software for three-dimensional reconstruction. The bone cortex was removed at the starting and terminal midpoints of the lamina as the observation holes.
