My Collection
This full color medical exhibit consists of six images depicting an L3 burst fracture with subluxation and the lumbar fusion surgery. The lumbar injuries are illustrated in three images: a silhouette male orientation figure, a lateral view of lumbar spine with burst fracture and loss of spinal curvature, and a sagittal view demonstrating subluxation and compression of the nerve elements. The key surgical steps illustrated include: A) midline incision for lumbar spine exposure and left posterior iliac crest incision for bone graft harvesting and B) decompressive L3 laminectomy and placement of hooks, screws, rods and bone graft. A lateral post-operative condition of the L1-L4 spinal fusion is also included.
