Influence of configuration and anchor in ligamentous augmentation to prevent proximal junctional kyphosis: A finite element study
Ligament augmentation has been applied during spinal surgery to prevent proximal junctional kyphosis (PJK), but the configuration and distal anchor strategies are diverse and inconsistent. The biomechanics of different ligament augmentation strategies are, therefore, unclear. We aimed to create a fi...
