Biomechanical effects of lumbar fusion surgery on adjacent segments using musculoskeletal models of the intact, degenerated and fused spine

Mahdi Ebrahimkhani et al.

Summary: Adjacent segment disorders are common in patients who have undergone spinal fusion surgery, with significant biomechanical changes affecting muscle forces and adjacent segment kinetics. Factors such as preoperative disc condition, postoperative lumbopelvic kinematics, and muscle injuries play a role in determining the impact on adjacent segment dynamics. Research indicates the importance of focusing on preserving or restoring normal segmental kinematics in surgical and postoperative rehabilitation interventions.
