Abstract

An analytical facet loading model is developed to study the mechanism of burst fracture. The model provides an understanding of stress variations with change in vertebral geometry from levels L1-L5. Moreover, the model provides insight of facet orientation on the distribution of stresses transmitted to the vertebral body through the pedicles. The study has shown clearly that there is a set of optimum facet orientations that would yield a burst type fracture under sufficient loading.
