Article Synopsis
- This study compared the effectiveness of CaO-SiO-PO-BO bioactive glass-ceramics (BGS-7) versus allograft spacers with iliac bone grafts (IBG) in patients undergoing multilevel anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) surgeries for neck issues.
- Patients who received BGS-7 had a fusion rate of 89.5%, while those with IBG had a fusion rate of 92.2%. Both methods showed solid integration with bone, and no significant differences were noted between the two types of spacers.
- Post-surgery, the BGS-7 group maintained better lower segmental height compared to the
Background: Commercially available flexible reamer and curved guide systems allow a certain degree of control over intra-articular tunnel orientation, therefore allows a wide range of intra-osseous femoral tunnel orientations, contrary to the femoral tunneling technique using a straight guide pin, which are determined by knee flexion angle. We sought to find the clinical relevance of intra-osseous femoral tunnel orientations in the respect of tunnel length. To evaluate the relationship between the tunnel axis angle in three orthogonal planes and tunnel length in the anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral (PL) femoral tunnels in patients who underwent anatomic double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (DB-ACLR) using the transportal (TP) technique with a 42 curved guide.
