The biomechanical function of the intervertebral disc (IVD) is a critical indicator of tissue health and pathology. The mechanical responses (displacements, strain) of the IVD to physiologic movement can be spatially complex and depend on tissue ...

RELIABILITY OF THE MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY (MSU) CLASSIFICATION OF LUMBAR DISC HERNIATION [PDF]
Objective: The Michigan State University (MSU) classification of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is periodically used by various authors to classify disc herniation. We assessed the reliability of this classification system among orthopedic residents at our

Lumbar spine intervertebral disc gene delivery of BMPs induces anterior spine fusion in lewis rats
Minimally invasive techniques and biological autograft alternatives such as the bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) can reduce morbidity associated with spinal fusions. This study was a proof-of-concept for gene-therapy-mediated anterior spine fusion that

VERTEBRAL PLATEAU DEGENERATION AFTER LUMBAR MICRODISCECTOMY: PROSPECTIVE COHORT [PDF]
Objective: To examine the evolution of degenerative changes in the vertebral plateau of patients with lumbar disc herniation undergoing microdiscectomy, emphasizing the progression of Modic type 1 and 2 changes.

A Rare Case of Sequestered Intervertebral Disc Mimicking a Tumour
Although intervertebral disc herniation is commonly seen in clinical practice, spinal canal migration of disc fragments is rarely found and can cause a diagnosis dilemma.

Short-Term Dynamic Unloading of Bovine Tail Discs in Culture Partially Mitigates Induced Degeneration After One-Strike Trigger. [PDF]
In a bovine intervertebral disc organ culture study including biological and mechanical evaluation parameters, unloading ‐compared to loading‐ partially mitigated the degenerative cascade (Timepoint 2) previously induced with a one‐strike trigger (Timepoint 1).
