Biomechanical evaluation of location and mode of failure in three screw fixations for a comminuted transforaminal sacral fracture model

Background: Pelvic ring–comminuted transforaminal sacral fracture injuries are rotationally and vertically unstable and have a high rate of failure. Objective: Our study purpose was to use three-dimensional (3D) optical tracking to detect onset location of bone–implant interface failure and measure...
