Introduction Interbody fusion is commonly utilized for arthrodesis and stability among
patients undergoing spine surgery. Over the last few decades, interbody device materials …

Purpose The primary objective of this paper was to provide a systematic review of the
available clinical studies of Ti/PEEK combined cages in spinal interbody fusion surgeries …

Background Titanium (TTN) cages have a higher modulus of elasticity when compared with
polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cages. This suggests that TTN-cages could show more …

Purpose Compared to titanium cage, polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cage with pedicle screw
fixation has been increasingly used in transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) …

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) has attracted much interest as biomaterial for interbody fusion
cages due to its similar stiffness to bone and good radio-transparency for post-op …

Study Design. A retrospective clinical study with a long-term follow-up in a single facility.
Objective. The purpose of this study is to compare bone union rate between autologous iliac …

Intervertebral cages in the lumbar spine represent an advancement in spinal fusion to
relieve low back pain. Different implant designs require different endplate preparations, but …

Object Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is an accepted alternative to
circumferential fusion of the lumbar spine in the treatment of degenerative disc disease …

Purpose The purpose of this study is to compare bone union rate between autologous iliac
bone and local bone graft in patients treated by posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) …

Objective Surgical treatment of a pyogenic spondylodiscitis (PSD) involves a fixation and
debridement of the affected segment combined with a specific antibiotic therapy. To achieve …
