Visible trephine-based foraminoplasty in PTED leads to asymmetrical stress changes and instability in the surgical and adjacent segments: a finite element analysis
Abstract This study aimed to construct a multi-segment lumbar finite element model (FEM) of PTED surgery to analyze the changes in stress and ROM after visible trephine-based foraminoplasty. The CT scans of a 35-year-old healthy male were used to develop a multi-segment lumbar FEM with Mimic, Geomag...
