Durability of posterior column fixation through the anterior-only approach: a prospective study for assessment of reduction loss

Key Points

• Reduction loss was significantly evaluated through the anterior-only approach, highlighting its durability.
• Over a time frame of 12 months, the findings revealed a noticeable incidence of reduction loss in 30% of cases.
• Prospective study employed thorough assessment methods to evaluate the effectiveness of posterior column fixation techniques.
• These results emphasize the need for careful consideration in surgical fixation techniques for optimal longevity.
