N2 - Injuries of the thoracolumbar junction are the most common fractures of the spine due to their anatomical position and load. Common classification systems differentiate between stable and unstable injuries and thus also between operative and conservative therapy. The majority of injuries can be treated conservatively; however, unstable injuries require surgical treatment for a variety of reasons. In the grey area between stable and unstable injuries, a clinical decision based on clinical experience is necessary in order to select the best treatment. A wide variety of parameters must be included and a change in strategy from conservative to operative may also be necessary. Posterior instrumentation is the most common procedure; purely anterior stabilization is rarely used. The length of the instrumentation/spondylodesis depends on bone quality, age of the patient, and fracture. The decision as to whether anterior operative treatment should be performed depends on fracture morphology, success of reduction, and the resulting stability. The open surgical procedure is increasingly being replaced by minimally invasive procedures in posterior and anterior techniques but can be an advantage in complex injuries (B and C injuries according to AO). Hybrid procedures are also possible. This also applies to the treatment of osteoporotic fractures, since a clear assignment between traumatic and osteoporotic cause is not always easy and possible. This article describes the principles, the possible indications, and limitations of minimally invasive posterior and anterior stabilization.
