Abstract

Clinical experience in spine alloplasty has long standing traditions at the Konstancin Center of Rehabilitation. The regeneration process of a fractured spine, in accordance with the principle adopted at Konstancin, called dynamic stabilization, carried into effect under the slogan: ‘Do not fix the vertebrae, stabilize them by means of flexible mechanical elements’ has produced good results in 150 cases.

This study was carried out with the participation of Eng. Zdzislaw Bendkowski.
