Complete cage migration/subsidence into the adjacent vertebral body after posterior lumbar interbody fusion.
A variety of implant-related short and long-term complications after lumbar fusion surgery are recognized. Mid to long-term complications due to cage migration and/or cage subsidence are less frequently reported. Here, we report a patient with a complete cage migration into the superior adjacent vertebral body almost 20 years after the initial posterior lumbar interbody fusion procedure. In thi...

متن کاملCan Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion with Carbon Spacers Restore Lordosis and Disc Height?
Introduction Posterior lumbar interbody fusion can theoretically allow neural decompression directly and by restoration of disc height and appropriate lumbar lordosis. The technique of insertion of a trapezoidal lordotic wedge spacer (ramp) into the disc space before rotating it into position theoretically will obtain both an increase in disc height and allow correction of lordosis. However obs...
متن کاملEffect of cage geometry on sagittal alignment after posterior lumbar interbody fusion for degenerative disc disease.
PURPOSE To compare the sagittal alignment of the lumbar spine after one-segment posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) using the horizontal cylinder (HC) or open box (OB) type cage. METHODS 66 patients underwent instrumented one-segment PLIF with bone grafting for lower lumbar degenerative disease. HC-type cages were used in 33 men and 13 women aged 20 to 73 (mean, 47) years between Septemb...
