Intervertebral disc distraction stiffness predicts endplate subsidence following transforaminal interbody cage expansion: an ex vivo study

Purpose: Expandable cages have the potential to mitigate the currently high subsidence rates following transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF), but are liable to over-distraction in situ.

3D-printed porous titanium versus polyetheretherketone cages in lateral lumbar interbody fusion: a systematic review and meta-analysis of subsidence

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundCage subsidence frequently complicates lumbar fusion procedures, including lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF), potentially leading to recurrent pain, impaired fusion, and accelerated degeneration of adjacent segments.
