Adjacent segment degeneration in the lumbar spine.
BACKGROUND A primary concern after posterior lumbar spine arthrodesis is the potential for adjacent segment degeneration cephalad or caudad to the fusion segment. There is controversy regarding the subsequent degeneration of adjacent segments, and we are aware of no long-term studies that have analyzed both cephalad and caudad degeneration following posterior arthrodesis. A retrospective invest...
متن کاملAdjacent Segment Degeneration Following Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion Versus the Bryan Cervical Disc Arthroplasty
BACKGROUND Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is an established treatment for degenerative disease of the cervical disc, but adjacent segment degeneration or instability may develop long term. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors for adjacent segment degeneration following ACDF compared with the use of the Bryan artificial disc for cervical disc arthroplasty (CD...
متن کاملAdjacent instability after instrumented lumbar fusion.
The invention of pedicle screw instrumentation has greatly improved outcomes of spinal fusion, which has become the treatment of choice for lumbar spondylolisthesis. As researchers accumulate experience, both theoretical and clinical advances are continually being reported. A review of the literature and the experience of the authors show that the development of adjacent instability, as in the ...
متن کاملevaluation of adjacent segment degeneration after cervical spine surgery: arthroplasty versus fusion
background : anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (acdf) is an effective treatment for disc herniations ; but some studies demonstrated that in the untreated levels adjacent to a fusion, increased motion might lead to an increased risk of adjacent segment degeneration (asd). on the other hand, methods of cervical disc arthroplasty (cda) have improved. the aim of this study is to evaluate and...
متن کاملAdjacent segment degeneration following spinal fusion for degenerative disc disease.
Fusion has become the standard of care for numerous pathologic conditions of the spine over the past 50 years. Instrumented thoracolumbar fusion for adolescent and adult spinal deformity has enjoyed great success in arresting the progression of and correcting scoliotic deformity. In the cervical spine, decompression and fusion have provided a greater than 90% likelihood of relieving radicular s...
