Study Design: A systematic review. Objective: To determine the effect of plate design on
fusion rates in patients undergoing a 1-and 2-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Dynamic anterior plates have been popularized to promote
cervical spine fusion by allowing controlled settling, thereby promoting load sharing across …

Study Design: Prospective, randomized controlled trial. Objective: The aim was to compare
perioperative and radiographic outcomes between stand-alone and anterior plated 1 and 2 …

Background Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) can be performed with and
without supportive anterior cervical plating. Fusion rates, incidence of dysphagia, and repeat …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Conflicting views exist according to the individual philosophy
about various plate designs that can be used in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion …

Introduction: The plate fixation for anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has
become increasingly widespread for facilitating early mobilization and improving fusion rate …

Study Design: Retrospective cohort. Objective: Compare rates of all-cause surgical and
medical complications between zero-profile (stand-alone) implants versus any graft type …

Background: Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has conventionally been
performed using an allograft cage with a plate-and-screw construct. Recently, standalone …
