Indications for the monosegmental stabilization of thoraco-lumbar spine fractures.

Monosegmental stabilization with fusion is a safe and effective method to treat well selected thoracolumbar spine fractures. The right indications are type A1, type B2, and type A3 with a load sharing of less than 7 points and some very well selected type C fractures in which there is not lateral and rotatory displacement.
