  • OBJECTIVE: Computer-assisted procedures have recently been introduced for navigated iliosacral screw placement. Currently there are only few data available reflecting results and outcome of the different navigated procedures which may be used for this indication. We therefore evaluated the features of a new 3D image intensifier used for navigated iliosacral screw placement compared to 2D fluoroscopic and CT navigation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty fixed human cadavers were used in this trial. Cannulated cancellous screws were percutaneously implanted in the supine position in four treatment groups. An optoelectronic system was used for the navigated procedures. Screw placement was postoperatively assessed by fluoroscopic 3D scan and CT. The target parameters of this investigation were practicability, precision as well as procedure and fluoroscopic time per screw. RESULTS: All navigated procedures revealed a significant loss of time compared to non-navigated screw placement (2D: p0.05, CT: p0.05). However, the CT procedure was associated with time-consuming registration and high rates of failed matching procedures. CONCLUSION: Our data show a clear benefit of using C-arm navigation for iliosacral screw placement compared with the CT-based procedure. While both fluoroscopy-based navigation procedures decrease intraoperative radiation exposure times, only 3D fluoroscopic navigation seems to improve the precision compared to non-navigated screw placement.
