Book Chapter Description

Within this chapter, we will illuminate the problems connected with the definition of spinal instability which is basic to understand the mechanics of spinal stabilisation. The principles of external and internal spinal stabilisation will be explained shortly. Moreover, we will describe principles of spinal stabilisation mainly based on the localisation of the pathology and the stabilising effect of implants. Finally, we will explain how a patient may be mobilised following spinal stabilisation.
