The aim of this study is to create a numerical model of the thoracolumbar spine. The model was built on the basis of diagnostic computed tomography. The simulations were performed on a physiological model, with a vertebral compression fracture and model with transpedicular fixation system. The knowledge about the mechanical properties obtained from numerical simulations would allow explain influence of vertebral compression fracture on the deformation thoracolumbar spine and the biomechanical aspects in the treatment of spine injury.
