Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Lumbar spine fusion is one of the most common operations for low back pain in spinal surgeons, but the clinical spine fusion rate is still low-level. How to availably promote spine fusion, raise fusion rate and clinical effect, and decrease complications is a problem for the spinal surgeon to work out.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize the relation between lumbar interbody fusion and anterior column, and to analyze the influence of structural and biomechanical changes on fusion rate.
METHODS: A computer online retrieval of CBM/CNKI/Medline for articles and reviews about lumbar interbody fusion published 1995-2009 was performed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The stability and integrality of the anterior column have notable effects on interbody fusion. In anterior lumbar interbody fusion and the fixations of anterior column fracture, we would better protect the structure and blood supply of the anterior column, and resume the integrality and stability of the anterior column to maintain the biomechanics environment of the lumbar, aiming to achieve the better fusion effect.
