Clinical validation of computer assisted pelvic surgery using ultrasound. A percutaneous safe technique with low radiation exposure.

This study presents early results of the clinical experience of computer assisted surgery (CAS) applied to percutaneous iliosacral screwing. The results of these 10 first cases (4 patients) are compared to an historical series of 51 cases (30 patients). The CAS technique shows better screw placement without outside bone screw and a very low radiation exposure.
