Introduction A novel expandable lumbar interbody fusion cage has been developed which
allows for a broad endplate footprint similar to an anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF); …

Background: A novel expandable lumbar interbody fusion cage has been developed which
allows for a broad endplate footprint similar to an anterior lumbar interbody fusion; however …

OBJECTIVE Expandable transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) cages were
designed to address the limitations of static cages. Bilateral cage insertion can potentially …

Study Design: A biomechanical finite element modeling study of the human lumbar spine.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of a transforaminal interbody device's footprint on lumbar …

Study Design. Controlled laboratory study. Objective. To evaluate the biomechanical
characteristics of a new expandable interbody cage in single-segment posterior lumbar …

Background Interbody fusion cages with integrated fixation components have become of
interest due to their ability to provide enhanced post-operative stability and mitigate device …

OBJECT Insufficient biomechanical data exist from comparisons of the stability of
expandable lateral cages with that of static transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) …

BACKGROUND: Anterior lumbar interbody fusion and posterior lumbar interbody fusion with
1 cage have been shown to have similar biomechanics compared with the use of 2 cages …

Background Anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) followed by pedicle screw fixation (PSF)
is used to restore the height of the intervertebral disc and provide stability. Recently, stand …

BACKGROUND: Prior biomechanical studies of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion were
primarily focused on various posterior instrumentation options, comparison with other fusion …
