Adjacent Segment Degenerative Disease: Is It Due to Disease Progression or a Fusion-Associated Phenomenon? Comparison Between Segments Adjacent to the Fused and Non-Fused Segments [PDF]
European Spine Journal, 2011 The purpose of this study was to determine whether fusion causes adjacent segment degeneration or whether degeneration is due to disease progression.Eighty-seven patients that had undergone single level anterior cervical decompression and fusions with at least 5 years of follow-up were enrolled in this retrospective study.

Adjacent Segment Disease Developing Dependence on Preoperative Adjacent Disc Degenerative Changes [PDF]
Global Spine Journal, 2014 Introduction The causes of adjacent segment disease (ASD) after lumbar spinal fusion are controversial today. Although the role of initial degenerative changes in the adjacent discs is not fully studied many authors have noted the special importance of ...

Adjacent Segment Pathology after Lumbar Spinal Fusion [PDF]
Asian Spine Journal, 2015 One of the major clinical issues encountered after lumbar spinal fusion is the development of adjacent segment pathology (ASP) caused by increased mechanical stress at adjacent segments, and resulting in various radiographic changes and clinical symptoms.
