Figure 3From: Compression and contact area of anterior strut grafts in spinal instrumentation: a biomechanical study Compressive forces on the block graft under various stabilization techniques for type A and type C injuries. Results are presented as the mean (SD). Significant differences: # vs. IF: P < 0.05; * vs. the corresponding fixation in group A-Type P < 0.001. Note: anterior fixation alone for type C injuries was for experimental purpose only and should not be performed clinically.Back to article page
