Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the learning curves, technical differences, and early complications of using hyperlordotic anterior and lateral interbody cages compared to regular lordotic cages for lumbar lordosis correction.
- Initial treatments involved 21 patients using either hyperlordotic ALIF or XLIF cages, with an average age of 64 and lumbar hypolordosis of 23°.
- Results showed no significant technical differences for ALIF cages, while slight differences were noted for XLIF cages, but the complication rates were comparable; overall, using hyperlordotic cages was deemed safe and had a short learning curve for experienced surgeons.
