Percutaneous Pedicle Screw, Posterior Midline Approach & Costotransversectomy Simplified | Rapid Clinical Review Series. A high-yield, exam-focused session covering Percutaneous Pedicle Screw fixation, Posterior Midline Approach, and Costotransversectomy, simplified for rapid understanding and clinical application. This video breaks down the core surgical anatomy, step-by-step operative concepts, and decision-making principles for three essential dorsal spine techniques.
Learn the fundamentals of minimally invasive pedicle screw placement, including entry points, trajectories, and fluoroscopic guidance. The posterior midline approach is discussed with emphasis on anatomical landmarks, muscle dissection planes, and safe exposure of the thoracic spine. The session also covers costotransversectomy, highlighting its role in accessing anterior thoracic pathology, including tumors, infections, and deformity.
Special focus is placed on indications, advantages, limitations, and complication avoidance, making this an ideal resource for neurosurgery residents and spine surgeons preparing for exams, viva, and operative practice.
