New screw technique could help patients avoid major back surgery

NCT ID NCT07443267

Summary

This study tested a less invasive procedure to treat spinal instability that can occur after back surgery. Doctors used CT imaging to guide the placement of screws through the spinal joints to stabilize the area, all while the patient was awake with local anesthesia. The goal was to see if this approach could reduce pain and improve daily activities, potentially helping patients avoid a more extensive open surgery.
