A spine screw, also known as a pedicle screw, is a type of medical implant used to stabilize the spine. It is a long, thin screw that is inserted into the pedicles of the vertebrae, which are the bony projections on the back of the spinal column. Spine screw Spine screws are most commonly used in spinal fusion surgery, which is a procedure to fuse two or more vertebrae together to create a more stable spinal segment. This may be necessary to treat conditions such as spondylolisthesis (slipped vertebra), spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), and degenerative disc disease. To insert a spine screw, the surgeon will make a small incision in the back over the affected vertebra. They will then use a drill to create a pilot hole in the pedicle. The spine screw is then inserted into the hole and secured with a washer and nut. Once the spine screws are in place, they are connected to each other using metal rods. This creates a strong and stable structure that can help to relieve pain and improve function. Spine screws are typically made of titanium or stainless steel. They are available in a variety of sizes and lengths to accommodate different patients and spinal conditions.
