Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 At my 25 year old son's bi annual check up today, the xray showed a broken rod. He is fused T3 - L3 with 2 surgical steel rods posterior. He also has a short anterior rod done when he was 16. It curved above and below that rod hence the longer fusion. This surgery was done 6 years ago and this is the first problem other than chronic pain. The ortho surgeon didn't seem that concerned about the broken rod and I am wondering what experience or problems others have had when this happens. Thank you.
