The introduction of a lag screw into the area of the spine called the pedicle, has, in a sense, revolutionized internal fixation of the spine. However, these devices, which are in fact, bone screws, have never been licensed by the FDA for use in the pedicle. So the patient/client who has had these devices implanted and who
has had an unsatisfactory result are quick to blame this device. For further information of Steffe Plate litigation, Click Here
