Cervical Fixation System (Posterior Cervical Fixation – PCF)

The Cervical Fixation System (PCF) is one of the most important and advanced methods for creating stability in the cervical spine region. This system is used when the cervical vertebrae suffer from instability, traumatic injuries, spondylolisthesis, degeneration due to severe arthritis, spinal canal stenosis, or vertebral tumors, and reliable stabilization is required to protect the spinal cord and nerve roots. In this technique, the fixation components are installed through a posterior approach to create a strong and robust structure at the back of the spine. This structure prevents abnormal movements of the vertebrae, provides the necessary conditions for complete vertebral fusion, and prevents the progression of damage. The precise design of this system makes it compatible with the sensitive and variable anatomy of the cervical vertebrae and enables safe stabilization even in complex cases. The components of this system include: Cervical Hook, Rod, Posterior Cervical Screw, and Cervical Nut. These components are designed to safely withstand the multiple and complex forces of neck movements such as rotation, flexion, and extension. The Cervical Fixation System PCF, by providing long-term stability, reducing pain, preventing the progression of instability, and effectively protecting neural structures, is considered one of the most common and reliable methods of cervical surgery and plays a key role in restoring the natural function of the spine.
