Electrical Stimulation and Spinal Fusion
The earliest reported use of electrical stimulation to improve the efficacy of spinal fusion was over a quarter of a century ago. At that time, Dwyer et al. were the first to show that adjunctive electrical stimulation improved the fusion rate of a diagnostically varied group of patients undergoing both anterior and posterior spinal fusion. Over the next decade, only two additional studies exam...

متن کاملImaging of spinal fusion

The purpose of the spinal hardware is to provide additional spinal stability while helping the fusion set up. The first successful surgical fusion procedures were described by ...
متن کاملEnhancing spinal fusion.
The acquisition of bony fusion is a complex task. Attention paid to the details presented here may improve fusion rates and patient outcomes. We have much to learn. We should focus on the details of the present and on the possibilities of the future to guide our surgical decision-making process. Indeed, "traumatized bone, whether disrupted via an overt act of trauma or via surgical intervention...
