Adjacent Segment Motion After Lumbar Fusion
t I I Study Design. For in vitro studies, there is no basis t for choosing a "load control study" over a "displace: ment control" study. This study qualitatively compared f results from in vitro and in vivo tests, allowing the au€ : thors to address the experimental assumptions that in vitro testing contributes to the understanding of the in vivo condition. Objectives. To compare motion changes...
متن کاملAdjacent Segment Pathology after Lumbar Spinal Fusion
One of the major clinical issues encountered after lumbar spinal fusion is the development of adjacent segment pathology (ASP) caused by increased mechanical stress at adjacent segments, and resulting in various radiographic changes and clinical symptoms. This condition may require surgical intervention. The incidence of ASP varies with both the definition and methodology adopted in individual ...
متن کاملAdjacent Lumbar Disc Herniation after Lumbar Short Spinal Fusion
A 70-year-old outpatient presented with a chief complaint of sudden left leg motor weakness and sensory disturbance. He had undergone L4/5 posterior interbody fusion with L3-5 posterior fusions for spondylolisthesis 3 years prior, and the screws were removed 1 year later. He has been followed up for 3 years, and there had been no adjacent segment problems before this presentation. Lumbar magnet...
متن کاملAdjacent 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 کاملRisk factors for predicting symptomatic adjacent segment degeneration requiring surgery in patients after posterior lumbar fusion
BACKGROUND Although measures to reduce and treat degenerative changes after fusion are discussed, these are still controversial. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on a consecutive series of 3,799 patients who underwent posterior lumbar fusion for degenerative lumbar disease between January 1999 and January 2009. A total of 28 patients with symptomatic adjacent segment degeneration s...
