Brief Summary

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has shown good treatment results for a variety of cervical spine diseases such as herniated intervertebral disc (HIVD), cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) and cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). ACDF using autogenous iliac bone graft is gold standard, however, it may lead to donor-site morbidities. Preventing these complications, some authors have tried to use alterative bone graft substitutes. Among these alternatives, Cervios ChronOs™ which is the polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cage with b-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) has become popular and shown good clinical results. However, b-TCP has only osteoconduction ability of three osteogenic properties. Recently, Bonion™ which is the PEEK cage filled with hydroxyapatite (HA) / demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is introduced. HA/DBM mixture has abilities of osteoconduction and osteoinduction, therefore this alternative is expected to show superior bone fusion capability to PEEK cage with b-TCP. However, there has been no comparison study between the PEEK cage with b-TCP and the PEEK cage with HA/DBM. The purpose of this study is to evaluate bone fusion rate between these cervical spine cages using postoperative computed tomography (CT)

Limitations and Caveats

Our study was included relatively small samples and short follow-up periods with 77 patients and one year duration. the measurement bias could be presented by individually different extent of neck flexion and extension in dynamic radiographs.
