- W2308275539 abstract "Background Synthetic interbody spinal fusion devices are used to restore and maintain disc height and ensure proper vertebral alignment. These devices are often filled with autograft bone to facilitate bone bridging through the device while providing mechanical stability. Nonporous polyetheretherketone (PEEK) devices are widely used clinically for such procedures. 1 Trabecular Metal devices are an alternative, fabricated from porous tantalum. It was hypothesized that the porous Trabecular Metal device would better maintain autograft viability through the center of the device, the ‘graft hole’ (GH). Methods Twenty-five goats underwent anterior cervical discectomy and fusion using a Trabecular Metal or PEEK device for 6, 12 or 26 weeks. The GH of each device was filled with autograft bone morsels harvested from the animal at implantation. Fluorochrome labeling oxytetracycline was administered to the animals and used to determine bone viability in the device regions. Following necropsy, the vertebral segments were embedded in poly(methyl methacrylate) sectioned and analyzed using fluorescence and backscatter electron (BSE) imaging. The percent of bone tissue present within the GH was measured as a volume percent using BSE images (Fig. 1). Results Bone percent analysis demonstrated that there was no significant difference (p Trabecular Metal device had significantly greater volumes of bone within the GH region. Viable bone was observed in the host bone region and periprosthetic to the implant of all PEEK (n=12) and Trabecular Metal (n=12) animals within the study, determined by the presence of fluorescent labels (Fig. 3). Viable bone was also observed in the GH region of all animals with a Trabecular Metal device. However, only 5 of 12 PEEK animals showed bone viability within the GH (2 at 12 weeks and 3 at 26 weeks). A Fisher9s exact comparison of the number of animals with viable bone in the GH showed a significant difference between the two devices, p Conclusion Autograft viability was better maintained within the GH for the porous Trabecular Metal device compared to the PEEK device. Although the amount of bone tissue within the GH of the PEEK devices was determined to have no significant difference compared to the Trabecular Metal devices at 6 and 26 weeks, the GH bone tissue was not viable in a number of the PEEK animals at each time point. The interconnected network and high volume porosity of the Trabecular Metal device may have allowed for fluid exchange, angiogenesis and increased blood supply to the autograft morsels. The viability of the autograft morsels also played an important role in the success of bone bridging through the GH between the vertebral endplates. In this animal model it was demonstrated that the autograft bone placed within the PEEK spinal fusion device did not always remain viable after implantation, but sometimes only filled the GH and did not necessarily facilitate fusion between the vertebrae as intended." @default.
