Abstract

The main goals of reconstructive spinal surgery are: decompression of spinal canal structures, restoration of the anatomic and biomechanic interrelations of the spine, and the reliable stability of the achieved result [685–691]. Experience with the various techniques and devices in spinal surgery indicates that these goals have not been entirely met and improvements are needed. The known surgical techniques of acute correction of various anatomic and functional disorders of the spinal column with internal fixation systems are invasive and dangerous for the spinal cord [692–696]. The frequency of neurological and vascular conflicts in such cases amounts to 10.2%, based on the findings of several reports [697–704]. Besides, the corrective and repositioning possibilities of these devices are limited.
