Biomechanical effect of endplate defects on the intermediate vertebral bone in consecutive two-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion: a finite element analysis

Biomechanical effect of endplate defects on the intermediate vertebral bone in consecutive two-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion: a finite element analysis

Abstract Background Intermediate vertebral collapse is a newly discovered complication of consecutive two-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). There have been no analytical studies related to the effects of endplate defects on the biomechanics of the intermediate vertebral bone afte...
