Use Of FIBERGRAFT BG Morsels Mixed With BMA In Anterior Cervical Discectomy And Fusion At 1, 2, 3 And 4 Levels: A Retrospective Analysis Of Fusion Results
Author(s): Luc Fortier
Background: Fibergraft material is a synthetic bone graft substitute that has been proven in animal models to reveal 100% fusion in posterolateral spine fusion at 26 weeks. The purpose of this study is to analyze post-op CT scans to evaluate the fusion effectiveness of Fibergraft BG Morsels when combined with bone marrow aspirate (BMA) in one-, two-, three-, and four-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF).
Methods: In this retrospective, single-center medical record review, post-op cervical CT scans at approximately six months were evaluated in 27 patients by one senior orthopedic spine surgeon. The surgeon was blinded to the clinical outcomes, patient demographics and past medical history. Fusion resu... view more»
