3D-printed vertebral body for anterior spinal reconstruction in patients with thoracolumbar spinal tumors.

Journal of Neurosurgery : Spine, 2022
OBJECTIVE A 3D-printed vertebral prosthesis can be used to reconstruct a bone defect more precisely because of its tailored shape, with its innermost porous structure inducing bone ingrowth.

Measurable Thoracic Motion Remains at 1 Year Following Anterior Vertebral Body Tethering, with Sagittal Motion Greater Than Coronal Motion

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2021
Background: Anterior vertebral body tethering is an alternative to fusion surgery for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) that is purported to preserve spinal motion. There is limited information regarding the measurable motion that is

The effect of bone graft geometry on spinal fusion vertebral stresses.

Journal of Applied Biomaterials & Functional Materials, 2008
Spinal fusion is a frequent surgical technique in which the success is uncertain due to post-operative changes in the biomechanics of the spine. Bone grafts are good candidates for disc and vertebra substitutes due to their similar bone properties and ...

Anterior Vertebral Body Tethering for Adolescent Scoliosis with Growth Remaining: A Retrospective Review of 2 to 5-Year Postoperative Results.

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2020
BACKGROUND Anterior vertebral body tethering (VBT) is an early treatment option for progressive scoliosis in pediatric patients, allowing for continued deformity correction during normal growth.

Impact of lumbar instrumented circumferential fusion on the development of adjacent vertebral compression fracture.

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2015
We evaluated the impact of lumbar instrumented circumferential fusion on the development of adjacent level vertebral compression fractures (VCFs). Instrumented posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) has become a popular procedure for degenerative ...

Porous titanium-6 aluminum-4 vanadium cage has better osseointegration and less micromotion than a poly-ether-ether-ketone cage in sheep vertebral fusion.

Artificial Organs, 2013
Interbody fusion cages made of poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) have been widely used in clinics for spinal disorders treatment; however, they do not integrate well with surrounding bone tissue.

Anterior Vertebral Body Growth-Modulation Tethering in Idiopathic Scoliosis: Surgical Technique.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2020
The management of idiopathic scoliosis in the skeletally immature patient can be challenging. Posterior spinal fusion and instrumentation is indicated for severe scoliosis deformities.
