Spinal instrumentations have been classified as rigid fixation, total disc replacement and
dynamic stabilization system for treatment of various spinal disorders. The efficacy and …

Titanium alloy-based Pedicle screw-rod fusion is a very common technique to provide
higher fusion regularity than other methods. In recent times, Carbon-fibre-reinforced (CFR) …

Background Semi-rigid lumbar fusion offers a compromise between pedicle screw-based
rigid fixation and non-instrumented lumbar fusion. However, the use of semi-rigid …

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) in lumbar spine is one of the major musculoskeletal
disorders that cause low back pain (LBP). The intervertebral disc structure and dynamics of …

The aim of this study is to design a novel expanding flexible rod device, for pedicle screw
fixation to provide dynamic stability, based on strength and flexibility. Three-dimensional …

Pedicular arthrodesis is the traditional procedure in terms of increase in the biomechanical
stability with higher fixation rate. The current work aims to identify the effect of three spinal …

The aim of this study was the analysis of the mechanical behaviour of a partially porous
lumbar custom-made cage by means of a subject-specific finite element analysis (FEA). The …

Instability in the spinal section along with the cases of degeneration is commonly cured by
the pedicle screw fixation system. The present work aims at the identification of suitable …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to examine the biomechanical effects of fixation on
range of motion (ROM) in the upper and lower adjacent segments of different lumbar spine …

The treatment of spinal failure requires suitable instrumentation, which is based on
numerous concepts such as rigid fixation, semi-rigid and dynamic stabilisation. In the …
