Biomechanics of a novel artificial cervical vertebra from an in vivo caprine cervical spine non-fusion model [PDF]
Objective: Anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) has been widely used in the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) but is accompanied by unavoidable motion loss and destruction of vertebra.
