Are Ceramic Cages an Option for Lumbar Interbody Fusion? A Comparative Biomechanical Numerical Study

JOR SPINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The treatment of severe disc pathologies through lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) involves the insertion of an interbody cage into the degenerated disc space, together with a supporting fixation system. Conventional cage materials, such as Ti6Al4V and PEEK, present several limitations, most notably their non‐biodegradability ...

National Trends and Risk Factors for Dysphagia After Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 9, Page 3918-3931, September 2026.
From 2016 to 2023, inpatient anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) volume declined 52.2% while postoperative dysphagia rates increased 11.4% annually. Analysis of 496,425 cases demonstrated that dysphagia risk varied markedly by surgical indication, with cervical diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, cervical spine fracture, and ...

Microendoscopic discectomy compared with standard microsurgical discectomy for treatment of uncontained or large contained disc herniations

, 2005
OBJECTIVE: Minimally invasive spinal techniques have been developed for years in an attempt to minimize trauma. However, most endoscopic techniques have been unable to address uncontained or large contained disc herniations.

En bloc discectomy via anterior lumbar approach: a technical note

SICOT-J
Introduction: Implant subsidence remains one of the complications following lumbar interbody fusion and total lumbar disc replacement, often attributed to excessive and uneven preparation of the subchondral bone. To address this limitation, we describe a

Risk factors for reoperation after discectomy of lumbar herniated intervertebral disc disease

Tzu Chi Medical Journal
Objectives: Discectomy is the most common surgery for lumbar herniated intervertebral disc (HIVD) disease. However, 5%–24% of patients undergo a second surgery due to recurrent disc herniation.
