Filter by:The objective of the PMCF is to collect outcome information on patients suffering from symptomatic degenerative disc disease or degenerative spondylolisthesis requiring 1- or 2-level lumbar or lumbar-sacral spinal fusion with posterior instrumentation and therefore receiving the icotec CF/PEEK Pedicle System in combination with the icotec CF/PEEK TLIF Cage ETurn™.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect and safety of NuCel to DBX on patients undergoing posteriolateral lumbar spinal fusions for degenerative disc disease.
An evaluation of the incidence of complications resulting from far lateral spine surgery utilizing the K2M RAVINE® Lateral Access System (RAVINE) with ALEUTIAN® Lateral Interbody Spacer System versus literature reported results for the NuVasive XLIF® system (XLIF) in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate fusion status and patient outcomes observed from use of the VESUVIUS Demineralized Fibers with the EVEREST Spinal System as compared to the literature reported outcomes of spinal fusion using autograft with posterior stabilization.
To quantify potential short- and long-term benefits of robotically-guided minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS) for adult patients with lower back degeneration, in comparison a matching group of control patients operated in a minimally invasive approach whether freehand or with image guidance or navigation techniques.
Lumbar Degenerative Spondylolisthesis (LDS) is a slippage of one vertebra over another caused by degeneration of facet joints, ligaments and intervertebral discs. Most patients suffer from symptoms related to spinal stenosis, such as radiating pain to the lower extremities, and typically increased pain in the lower limbs when walking upright and decreased when bending forward. There is a moderate grade of evidence for whether patients will achieve better outcome after surgery when decompression is followed by fusion. In theory, fusion following decompression should give more stability to the operated level, thus less pain and less progression of the olisthesis. On the other hand, fusion procedures, in general, are associated with more severe complications and postoperative mortality than decompression alone. In summary, there is still insufficient evidence for performing fusion in addition to decompression for patients with LDS. The investigators are planning a trial where the main aim is to detect whether the intervention-related difference in outcome between decompression alone (DA) and decompression followed by fusion with instrumentation (DF) is large enough to justify the use of the fusion procedure. The proposed trial is a randomized, controlled, multicentre, non- inferiority trial with two parallel groups, with 15 participating Norwegian hospitals. The main analysis will be performed 2 years after surgery with long-term follow-up planned at 5 and 10 years postoperatively.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of CarboFix' Pedicle Screw System in the lumbar spine.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether NuCel is effective in promoting spinal fusion in degenerative disease of the lumbar spine.
The first purpose of this study is to define parameters of the trunk neuromuscular functions that are pathologically altered in patients with low back pain due to spondylolytic spondylolisthesis. The second and also the main purpose of the study is to examine the effects of exercise intervention on patients with low back pain due to spondylolytic spondylolisthesis. Our overall hypothesis is that specific exercise intervention will improve neuromuscular functions of the trunk in patients with low back pain due to spondylolytic spondylolisthesis.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the relative efficacy of two lumbar fusion procedures: transacral lumbar interbody fusion when used in conjunction with unilateral or bilateral posterior pedicle screw fixation as an adjunct to fusion, in comparison to transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) when used in conjunction with unilateral or bilateral supplemental screw fixation as an adjunct to fusion. Subject candidates are those who had previously required and received fusion at L4-L5-S1 where these were the only lumbar levels treated for pseudoarthrosis, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, or degenerative disc disease (DDD).
