Biomechanical evaluation of a novel repair strategy for intervertebral disc herniation in an ovine lumbar spine model

Following herniation of the intervertebral disc, there is a need for advanced surgical strategies to protect the diseased tissue from further herniation and to minimize further degeneration. Accordingly, a novel tissue engineered implant for annulus fibrosus (AF) repair was fabricated via three-dime...
