Lateral migration resistance of screw is essential in evaluating bone screw stability of plate fixation
Abstract Conventional evaluation of the stability of bone screws focuses on pullout strength, while neglecting lateral migration resistance. We measured pullout strength and lateral migration resistance of bone screws and determined how these characteristics relate to screw stability of locking plat...
