We have experienced many conservative cases of various complications due to long-term bed rest and poor pain control. Recently we have adopted percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) fixation for the treatment of PS as a minimally invasive spine stabilization (MISt) fusion to reduce such morbidity of the conservative care. </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;">Objective</span></b></span><b style="line-height:1.5;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">:</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:""> </span></b><span style="font-family:'';font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;">To evaluate the impact of PPS fixation in patients with PS. </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;">Study Design</span></b></span><b style="line-height:1.5;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">:</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:""> </span></b><span style="font-family:'';font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;">A retrospective analysis of the medical records. </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:12px;">Subjects, Methods</span></b></span><b style="line-height:1.5;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;">:</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:""> </span></b><span style="line-height:1.5;font-family:Verdana;">We reviewed 54 consecutive patients who underwent treatment in our hospital for PS during 2005-2018 and observed for more than 12 months.
