cadaveric spines. Objective. Determine the influence of the volume of polymethyl methacrylate …

Interbody fusion cages are routinely implanted during spinal fusion procedures to facilitate
arthrodesis of a degenerated or unstable vertebral segment. Current cages are most …

Pedicle screw loosening has been implicated in recurrent back pain after lumbar spinal
fusion, but the degree of loosening has not been systematically quantified in patients. …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Stand-alone nonbiologic interbody fusion devices for the lumbar
spine have been used for interbody fusion since the early 1990s. However, most devices …
