A novel Z-shaped anti-rotation rod for atlantoaxial dislocation reduction: finite element analysis
Both PS-CR and PS-ZR configurations provide reliable and comparable stability. Compared to the PS-CR configuration, the PS-ZR configuration provides superior reduction force and stability, potentially reducing the need for additional release surgery and surgical time. This novel design has significant clinical implications for improving fixation techniques.
