Instrumentation ofLumbar Spine
Fractures

68.1 Introduction and Core Messages
The distinctive feature of the minimally invasive posterior dorsal instrumentation is not so much the less
invasive placement of mono- or polyaxial pedicle
screws, but rather the fact that it allows a genuine distraction and lordosis reduction, the real benet of the
procedure described here. However, this minimally
invasive reduction requires a special instrumentation
and the mandatory use of monoaxial pedicle screws,
since only such screws can sustain the preload resulting from the reduction. The goals of the minimally
invasive posterior instrumentation with S4 fracture
reduction instruments are almost no soft tissue damage, because muscle attachments are not detached,
same reduction results as in open procedures, same
implants as for open procedures, reduced postoperative pain, shorter operation time, and negligible blood
loss.
68.2 Indications
• Anterior compression fractures with kyphosis angle and
unstable fractures of the lumbar spine [1]
• Only restricted indication in AO C-type fractures (see
contraindications [2])
• Only relative indications in multilevel injuries [3]
68.3 Contraindications
• Severe osteoporosis, osteopenia, or osteomyelitis
• Transverse connector required in cases of rotational
instability
• Same contraindications as for open procedures [4, 5]
68.4 Technical Prerequisites
Fluoroscopy, radiolucent operating table, cannulated pedicle
screws (S4 Spinal System, Aesculap AG), special fracture
reduction instruments (e.g., S4 spinal system with fracture
reduction instrument—FRI, Aesculap, see Fig. 68.1). If
kyphosis correction is intended, the use of monoaxial fracture screws is required, because only these screws can sustain the preload of the reduction maneuver. There are other
devices available for percutaneous dorsal instrumentation
(e.g., Sextant, Medtronic), but at the moment, only the FRI
device allows genuine fracture reduction.

incision
68.5 Planning, Preparation,
andPositioning
During the operation, the patient is in a prone position on a
radiolucent operating table. Different positioning systems
can be used (Wilson frame, chest rolls, Relton-Hall frame,
etc.).
Exact C-arm-controlled planning of the approach is man-
datory (see Fig.68.2).
68.6 Surgical Technique
68.6.1 Approach
• Access is obtained by an incision of the thoracolumbar
fascia between the multidus and the longissimus muscles. The muscles are dissected bluntly only in the ber
direction. As a rule, this procedure can be carried out
without bleeding or with minimal blood loss. With the
help of an appropriate cannulated guiding device (see
Fig.68.3), the entry point is selected at the junction of the
facet and the transverse process.
• Remove the trocar; the K-wire aiming device remains in
the pedicle (see Fig.68.4).
To guide the cannulated pedicle screw, insert the K-wire
into the aiming device. As alternative, you can use a K-wire
protection sleeve (see Fig.68.5).

Note: The Kirschner wire should be inserted so far that its
tip represents the end position of the pedicle screw tip.
• You must be absolutely certain that the Kirschner wire is
not inserted too far to avoid damaging soft tissue and vessels. Use intraoperative uoroscopy!

alignment device. (With permission from Aesculap AG, Tuttlingen,

• Align the screw to the cranio-caudal axis. Both sides of
the screwdriver must show in the cranio-caudal direction
(see Fig.68.11). If necessary, a special top piece can be
used (Fig.68.12).
• Measure the length of the rod with the rod length–measuring instrument (see Fig.68.13). If a distraction is necessary, a longer rod should be used accordingly. If you use
prebent rods, add ca. 10mm.
• Then, insert the FRI outer sleeves through the tissue protection sleeves. Align the longitudinal slit of the outer
sleeve caudally. Then, remove the protection sleeves and
insert the transverse rod with the rod inserter (see
Fig.68.14).
• Note: Before placing the FRI outer sleeves, the surgical
eld can be kept free using a Langenbeck hook; the rod
can then be inserted through this aperture (see
Fig.68.15).
• Put the reduction lever in place, the setscrew is received;
then insert the construct through the FRI sleeve in the
pedicle screw (see Fig.68.16). Screw the construct as far
as it will go into the anks of the pedicle screw (see
Fig.68.17).
Note: Make sure the setscrew does not block the rod to
avoid blocking the distraction (s. b.). If necessary, loosen
the setscrews a quarter of a turn.

68.6.3 Reduction
• Now, the installation of the distraction tool follows. The
distractor is inserted via the bolt in the guiding groove of
the cranial and caudal outer sleeve. The distraction blades
must be aligned parallel to the outer sleeves (see
Fig. 68.18a, b). The distraction is carried out consecutively (1 surgeon) or simultaneously (surgeon and assistant) under C-arm guidance.
• To reconstruct the natural lordosis, insert the spindle distractor into the corresponding nut and, by activating the
control knob, adjust the lordosis under uoroscopy guidance (see Fig.68.19a, b).
68.7 Tips andTricks
• Accurate positioning of patient, carefully aligned anterioposteriorly to the perpendicular line of the room axis, is
enormously helpful for the surgeon’s spatial orientation
and facilitates the initial pedicle screw alignment.
• If the instrumentation “is stuck,” then loosen the setscrew
or regulating screw little bit.
• If the insertion of prebent rods is planned, then it is helpful to position the cranial pedicle screws at an angle of ca.
10° cranially and the caudal pedicle screws at an angle of
ca. 10° caudally.
• Using the regulating screw on the threaded tube, press the
rod rmly. You must loosen the regulating crew a quarter
68.8 Results
of a turn to avoid blocking of the setscrew. Then, tighten
up the setscrew with the screwdriver (see Fig.68.20).
• Remove the screwdriver and unscrew the threaded tube
with the ratchet handle (see Fig.68.21).
• Final tightening of the construct is carried out with a
countering instrument and a 10-Nm (90-in/lb) torque
wrench (see Fig.68.22). Finally, the anks are broken off
using the ank breaking forceps (Fig.68.23).
The example of an LWK 1 AO-A3.1 fracture shows that,
through a minimally invasive procedure, the FRI instrumentation allows to achieve an anatomical reduction in
spite of restricted access. It permits a clearly more expeditious postoperative mobilization of the patients while causing them less pain in comparison to the open procedure
(Figs.68.23).
