J Orthop Surg Res . 2023 Nov; 18(1):855. PMID: 37950318
Background: Pedicle screw loosening and breakage are common causes of revision surgery after lumbar fusion. Thus, there remains a continued need for supplemental fixation options that offer immediate stability without...

J Biomech . 2021 Jun; 124:110571. PMID: 34174488
Distraction-based growing rods are frequently used to treat Early-Onset Scoliosis. These use intermittent spinal distractions to maintain correction and allow for growth. It is unknown how much spinal distraction can...

Agarwal A, Mooney M, Agarwal A, Jayaswal D, Saakyan G, Goel V, et al.
Spine Surg Relat Res . 2021 Apr; 5(2):104-108. PMID: 33842718
Introduction: Recent literature has associated pseudarthrosis and pedicle screw loosening with subchronic infection at the pedicle of the vertebra. The positive culture results of a previous retrieval analysis show that...

Spine Surg Relat Res . 2020 May; 4(2):148-151. PMID: 32405561
Introduction: Recent literature identifies similar failure rates such as anchor pull-out and rod breakage, but a higher unplanned revision surgery with MAGEC rods than with traditional growth rods. Besides known...
