Comparing Bone Graft Techniques for Interbody Fusion through a Posterior Approach for Treating Mid‐Thoracic Spinal Tuberculosis: A Retrospective Analysis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 53-61, January 2023., 2023
We compared the therapeutic efficacy of titanium mesh cages, allogeneic bone grafts, and autogenous bone grafts, for anterior column reconstruction through a posterior approach in cases of mid‐thoracic spinal tuberculosis. In terms of postoperative recovery and rate of successful graft fusion of bone graft, posterior instrumentation, debridement, and ...
