Spanish term or phrase: alambres subpediculares
Aparece en un informe radiológico (de Guatemala) en que el doctor describe el tratamiento que la niña ha recibido. La niña tiene escoliosis severo.

contexto: "Se procedió a realizar una intervención quirúrgica en base a una fijación con una barra tipo luke con alambres subpediculares de T-10 a T-12 y atrodesis en este mismo nivel."

¿Se suele decir "subpedicular wires"?

Gracias.

Explanation:
Well, the only refs I've found re this type of procedure is regarding "subpedicle screws", nothing at all on "subpedicle wiring/wires". All refs regarding wiring seem to refer to "sublaminar".

So perhaps the writer got his/her wires crossed!

Then again, these refs show that there is a debate going on about the efficiency of thoracic pedicle screws versus sublaminar wiring.

Sue's evidence suggest that in this instance it should be "sublaminar wiring"...
