Comparative Study of Cage Subsidence in Single-Level Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion [PDF]
We investigated the incidence and clinical features of cage subsidence after single-level lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF). We studied a retrospective cohort of 59 patients (34 males, 25 females; mean age, 68.9 years) who received single-level LLIF. Patients were classified into subsidence and no-subsidence groups.

Comparing the Prognostic Utility of Vertebral and Endplate Bone Quality Scores for Cage Subsidence Following Single‐Level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion: A Retrospective Analysis [PDF]
Objective Cage subsidence following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is linked with poor bone quality. MRI‐derived bone quality scores have been shown to provide valuable insights into postoperative complication risk; however, the optimal ...

Augmenting Screw Technique to Prevent TLIF Cage Subsidence: A Biomechanical In Vitro Study. [PDF]
(1) Cage subsidence in spine surgery is a frequent clinical challenge. This study aimed to assess a novel screw augmentation technique for Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion in cadavers of reduced bone mineral density (BMD). (2) Forty human lumbar vertebrae (BMD 84.2 ± 24.4 mgHA/cm3, range 51–119 mgHA/cm3) were assigned to two groups: augmenting ...

Cortical Endplate Bone Density Measured by Novel Phantomless Quantitative Computed Tomography May Predict Cage Subsidence more Conveniently and Accurately [PDF]
Objective Previous studies have shown that bone mineral density (BMD) is a predictor of cage subsidence. Phantom‐less quantitative computed tomography (PL‐QCT) can measure volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of lumbar trabecular and cortical bone. The
