Changing rod stiffness to moderate stress of adjacent disc in oblique lumbar interbody fusion - a finite element analysis

Abstract Background OLIF (oblique lumbar interbody fusion) is a minimally invasive surgery to treat spinal instability. However, clinical studies indicated the early degeneration of adjacent segments after surgery. The rod stiffness of OLIF was associated with change at adjacent segments. Therefore,...
