Abstract | This study aims to establish three-dimensional finite element models of lumbar instability, and compares the biomechanics of unilateral and bilateral pedicle screw fixation with intervertebral body fusion. Simulated physiological loads with axial compression, anterior flexion, posterior extension, left lateral bending, right lateral bending, left-handed rotation, and right-handed rotation were applied in unilateral and bilateral fixation models. The stresses of pedicle screws, intervertebral fusion cages, and adjacent intervertebral discs, and the displacement of the vertebral body in two models were recorded and compared. Under 7 kinds of loads, the stresses of screws in a unilateral fixation model were higher than in a bilateral fixation model, but there were no significant differences (P>0.05). Under loads with left and right lateral bending, and left-and right-handed rotation, the stresses of intervertebral fusion cages in a unilateral fixation model were significantly higher than in a bilateral fixation model (P<0.05). Under 6 kinds of loads except for axial compression, the stresses of adjacent upper and lower intervertebral discs in a bilateral fixation model were clearly greater than in a unilateral fixed model (P<0.05), and the stress of upper intervertebral discs was clearly greater than that of lower intervertebral discs (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in L4 vertebral body displacement between the two models under different loads (P>0.05). Unilateral pedicle screw fixation with intervertebral body fusion can be used for treatment of lumbar instability. It can provide initial stability for spinal fusion, and reduce the effect on adjacent segment degeneration. |
