Abstract

Objective To investigate the surgical outcome of expandable interbody cage and pedicle screw fixation with intervertebral body fusion for  lumbar instable   disease by  comparative  study.    Methods ninety-three patients with degenerative lumbar instability were reviewed retrospectively from Jan.2007 to Jan. 2010. Forty-three patients underwent an expandable interbody cage (group A), while fifty cases underwent a pedicle screw fixation with intervertebral body fusion (group B). operation and follow-up data of the two groups  and  were evaluated and compared.    Results    All patients were followed up for 3 years. Reduced operative time, blood loss , postoperative complications of patients could be found in Group A  can and  JOA score at postoperative 14d and followed up for 1-3 years of patients in the two groups , intervertebral fusion rate, intervertebral height showed no significant difference(P>0.05).   Conclusion    Two surgical methods are both optional in lumbar spine instabable disease. When patients were carefully chosen prior to operation and the posterior lumbar structure was retained  in operation, expandable interbody fusion can achieve good therapeutic effect.
