Cementless Fixation of Osteoporotic VCFs Using Titanium Mesh Implants (OsseoFix): Preliminary Results

Figure 1

Radiological measurement by means of a fractured vertebra body of the thoracolumbar spine. Height in sagittal alignment is defined using 6 points: A and B are on the most dorsal-superior and dorsal-inferior endplate margins, E and F correspond to the most anterior-superior and anterior-inferior margins, and C and D are on the midpoint of a perpendicular line drawn from A to E and B to F on the superior and inferior vertebral endplates. Resulting Cobb and vertebra body kyphotic angle.
