Adjacent Bilateral Stress Pedicle Fractures after Instrumented Lumbar Fusion: A Case Report.
Korean Journal of Neurotrauma 2017 April
Bilateral pedicle stress fractures are rare even in the elderly. Bilateral pedicle fractures are due to post-surgical complications at the level of fusion or stress related activities in most cases. The authors describe a unique case of adjacent L4 bilateral pedicle fractures, which developed 4 years after anterior lumbar interbody fusion with bone cement augmented screw fixation at the L5-S1 level. As far as the authors' knowledge, no similar case has been previously reported in the literature. The pathophysiological mechanism of this rare entity is discussed with review of relevant literature.
