Update on the Evidence for Adjacent Segment Degeneration and Disease

Spine Journal, 2013
The evidence surrounding the topic of adjacent segment degeneration and disease has increased dramatically with an abundant amount of literature discussing the incidence of and techniques to avoid it. However, this evidence is often confusing to discern because of various definitions of both adjacent segment degeneration and disease.To organize and ...

Adjacent Segment Disease After Anterior Cervical Interbody Fusion

Spine Journal, 2004
There have been many follow-up studies on anterior interbody fusion for cervical nerve root and spinal cord compression, and excellent neurological outcomes have been reported. However, postoperative degenerative changes at adjacent discs may lead to the development of new radiculopathy or myelopathy.

Adjacent Segment Impingement: A New Type of Adjacent Segment Disease?

JBJS Case Connector, 2022
Case: We present 3 cases in which spinal rods extending beyond the intended level of fusion caused injury to adjacent structures, which we term “adjacent segment impingement.” All cases presented as back pain with no neurological symptoms, with a minimum 6 years of follow-up from the initial procedure. Treatment

Adjacent Segment Disease After Spinal Fusion

JBJS Reviews, 2023
» Adjacent segment disease is characterized by a degenerative process adjacent to a previously fused spine segment, with new onset of clinical symptoms such as radiculopathy, myelopathy, or instability.

Adjacent-Segment Disease Following Spinal Arthroplasty

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2021
Intuitively, the introduction of artificial discs into spinal surgery offered the promise of reducing the incidence of adjacent segment (AS) reoperation compared with fusion. Several early clinical studies reported nonstatistically significant differences in AS disease between total disc replacement and fusion.

Adjacent segment degeneration and adjacent segment disease: the consequences of spinal fusion?

The Spine Journal, 2004
Given the number of spinal fusions performed annually, concerns have mounted over the potential for adjacent segment degeneration (radiographic changes of degeneration at levels adjacent to a spinal fusion) and adjacent segment disease (development of new symptoms correlating with adjacent segment degeneration). This article reviews documented evidence
