Abstract

The aim of present study is to study clinical outcomes of pedicle screw fixation in unstable dorsolumbar fractures using Denis work scale and pain scale and Frankel’s neurology grading. All the patients were initially assessed in the outpatient department or casualty according to their presentation and then they underwent a detailed evaluation of their hemodynamics, spine, neurological status and other injuries if associated with trauma. After initial investigations and haemodynamic stabilization, patients were assessed neurologically in detail. The pre-operative neurological status was graded on the basis of Frankel’s grading.
