Spinal fusion is gold-standard treatment for degenerative disc disease (DDD) both at cervical and lumbar spine, and it is time tested. Perhaps it has its bundle of complications. Elimination of motion results in accentuated degeneration of adjacent segments leading to adjacent segment degeneration ...

New progress in adjacent segment degeneration/disease [PDF]
Adjacent segment degeneration/disease (ASD) has been generally accepted as a long‐term complication after spinal surgery. Although the incidence of ASD is not very high, it is gradually recognized to be a very important factor in evaluation of the long‐term effect of spinal fusion.
