If you plan to opt for spinal fusion surgery to treat your neck or lower back pain, your surgeon will likely place an interbody cage in your spine. The cage serves as a space holder between your affected vertebrae and allows bone to grow through it, eventually becoming a part of your spine.
22 de jul. de 2022 · Spinal interbody cages are useful tools in fusion surgeries and serve as a space holder between the treated vertebral levels. Cages allow bone to grow through it, eventually becoming a part of the spine.
The procedure uses a new type of device called an intervertebral fusion cage to perform a spinal fusion between two or more vertebrae in the lumbar spine (the lower back). This document will discuss:
3 de ene. de 2022 · Application of a stand-alone expandable cage in the cervical spine after one or two-level ACCF without additional posterior fixation or anterior plating is a safe procedure that results in fusion. Neither significant subsidence of the cages nor significant loss of lordotic correction were seen.
25 de mar. de 2019 · Posterior cervical interfacet cages are an alternative to lateral mass fixation in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. Recently, a percutaneous, tissue-sparing system for interfacet cage placement has been developed, however, there is limited clinical evidence supporting its widespread use.
1 de abr. de 2021 · Interbody cages represent an invaluable technologic advancement in the field of spinal fusion surgery, particularly anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). Interbody cages improve sagittal alignment, aid in fusion by allowing for containment of graft material, and restore biomechanical stability after discectomy.
The cervical decompression and spine fusion surgery is performed with the patient in the supine position (lying on the back, with the face upward) under general anesthesia. Usual requirements include adequate padding of bony and soft tissue structures.
