European Spine Journal, 08/25/09
Huec JCL et al. – Mean immediate postoperative gain in localized kyphosis was 12.18° and mean gain at last follow–up was 11.71°. Mean immediate postoperative gain in RA was 13.24° and remained identical at last follow–up. Five patients had a transient pulmonary atelectasia and there was one pulmonary infection. No neurological complication occurred. Fracture reduction is comparable to the best thoracotomy series while limiting approach–related complications.
