Biomechanical analysis of single-level interbody fusion with different internal fixation rod materials: a finite element analysis
Abstract Background Lumbar spinal fusion with rigid spinal fixators as one of the high risk factors related to adjacent-segment failure. The purpose of this study is to investigate how the material properties of spinal fixation rods influence the biomechanical behavior at the instrumented and adjace...
