Poor bone mineral density aggravates adjacent segment's motility compensation in patients with oblique lumbar interbody fusion with and without pedicle screw fixation: An in silico study
ObjectiveMotility compensation increases the risk of adjacent segment diseases (ASDs). Previous studies have demonstrated that patients with ASD have a poor bone mineral density (BMD), and changes in BMD affect the biomechanical environment of bones and tissues, possibly leading to an increase in AS...
