OsseoScrew Versus Fenestrated Pedicle Screws Augmented With Polymethylmethacrylate

This was a randomized, open-label, controlled, multi-center study in which patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the OsseoScrew or any commercially available fenestrated screw augmented with polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) (Control group) for posterior spinal fixation after surgical correction of spinal deformity or pathology. The study was planned to include up to 150 skeletally mature patients with spinal instability and osteopenia at up to 10 sites. Patients were to return postoperatively at 6 weeks (± 2 weeks) and at 6, 12, and 24 months (± 2 months) for assessments.
