ABSTRACT
A total of 33 non-neurological symptoms patients with thoracolumbar fractures underwent unilateral pedicle screw fixation plus short segment pedicle screw through para-vertebral muscles. Preoperative computed tomography ( CT) scan showed one side pedicle was complete.The average follow-up period was 22 (12-40) months.There was no internal fixation failure.The posterior paraspinal approach for unstable thoracolumbar fractures , retaining posterior ligament complex and fixation by unilateral pedicle screw fixation through the pedicle of fractured vertebra , is both safe and effective for thoracolumbar fractures.
