Vertebral bone density in Hounsfield units as a predictor of interbody non-union and implant subsidence in lumbar circumferential fusion

open access: yesХирургия позвоночника, 2022
Objective. To determine the values of Hounsfield units (HU) of the lumbar vertebrae predicting unsatisfactory radiological results of circumferential interbody fusion at the lumbar level. Material and Methods. The data of patients who underwent a single-

Radiologic Assessment of Subsidence in Stand-Alone Cervical Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Cage

open access: yesJournal of Korean Neurosurgical Society, 2008
Aim of study was to find a proper method for assessing subsidence using a radiologic measurement following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with stand-alone polyetheretherketone (PEEK), Solistrade mark cage.Forty-two patients who underwent ACDF with Solistrade mark cage were selected.

A novel anatomic titanium mesh cage for reducing the subsidence rate after anterior cervical corpectomy: a finite element study

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Fusion with a titanium mesh cage (TMC) has become popular as a conventional method after cervical anterior corpectomy, but postoperative TMC subsidence has often been reported in the literature.

Comparison of Subsidence Rates of Large and Small Footprint Cages in Anterior Cervical Interbody Fusion

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2015
Introduction Subsidence rates after ACDF have been reported widely in literature and range from 0 to 57%. Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cages are one of the most commonly used interbody spacers.

Safety of a novel modular cage for transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion − clinical cohort study in 20 patients with degenerative disc disease

open access: yesSICOT-J, 2018
Introduction: Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is used to reconstruct disc height and reduce degenerative deformity in spinal fusion. Patients with osteoporosis are at high risk of TLIF cage subsidence; possibly due to the relatively small ...

Three-dimensional analysis of interbody cage-apophyseal ring contact to predict endplate subsidence following transforaminal interbody fusion

open access: yes
Background There is a higher risk of subsidence following transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) relative to other approaches. Decreased subsidence risk is associated with anterior cage placement, speculated to be because of increased apophyseal ...

Would Resting a Lateral Interbody Cage across the Ring Apophysis in the Lumbar Spine Mitigate Endplate Violation?

open access: yesGlobal Spine Journal, 2015
Introduction Several operative approaches are commonly utilized to access the anterior column for lumbar interbody fusion. These include anterior (ALIF), posterior (PLIF and TLIF), and lateral (transpsoas) techniques.

Radiographic and clinical evaluation of cage subsidence after stand-alone lateral interbody fusion Clinical article

open access: yes, 2013
Object. Indirect decompression of the neural structures through interbody distraction and fusion in the lumbar spine is feasible, but cage subsidence may limit maintenance of the initial decompression.
