Use of the sagittal Cobb* angle to guide the rod bending in the treatment of thoracolumbar fractures: a retrospective clinical study

Abstract Background Pedicle screw fixation is a well-established technique for thoracolumbar fracture. A large number of studies have shown that the bending angle of the connecting rod has a significant correlation with the postoperative spinal stability. However, no studies have confirmed an object...
