- W3200005132 abstract "Total disc replacement (TDR) was clinically introduced as an alternative to spinal fusion to relieve back pain, maintain mobility of the spine and eliminate the adverse side effects of fusion. More recently, gamma-inert-sterilized ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) TDR cores were introduced to replace historical gamma-air-sterilized cores in an effort to reduce UHMWPE wear debris and inflammation. In this study, both implant and periprosthetic tissue retrievals from patients with gamma-inert-sterilized TDRs were evaluated for in vivo performance and biological responses, respectively. As pain was the primary revision reason for all patients, the contributions of implant-related damage and tissue responses to the development of pain were also a focus of this investigation. After analyzing implants and tissues for 11 TDR patients, detectable UHMWPE wear debris was identified with corresponding macrophage infiltration in six patients with associated implant damage. Neither damage nor TDR bearing design, fixed vs mobile, influenced the amount, size and shape characteristics of wear particles. However, comparisons to a retrieval study of historical devices indicated that the number of UHMWPE particles generated from gamma-inert-sterilized devices were decreased by 99% (p=0.003) and were 50% rounder (p=0.003), confirming the improved wear resistance of the newer devices. Accordingly, periprosthetic tissue reactions were also substantially reduced. Prospective immunohistochemical investigations for these devices showed, for the first time, that UHMWPE wear-debris induced tissue reactions in the human lumbar spine can be linked to inflammation. First, inflammatory factors were elevated in TDR periprosthetic tissues (n=30) when compared to disc degenerative disease (DDD) patient tissues (n=3) from primary surgery and disc tissues (n=4) from normal autopsy patients with no history of lower back pain. The mean percent area of production for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (p=0.04), interleukin-1beta (IL-1[beta]), (p=0.01) and substance P (p=0.01) were significantly higher in TDR tissues when compared to tissues obtained from DDD patients. Although platelet derived growth factor-bb (PDGFbb) (p=0.14), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF[alpha]) (p=0.06) and nerve growth factor (NGF) (p=0.19) were also increased in the TDR patient tissues, these increases were not significant. Compared to normal disc tissues, the mean percent area for all six factors was statistically increased in TDR tissues (at least p<0.05 for all). Interestingly, no statistical differences were observed between DDD and normal disc tissues. Next, our studies showed that TNFα, IL-1[beta], VEGF, NGF and substance P strongly correlated with the number of wear particles and also the number of macrophages for the TDR patient group (at least p<0.05 for all). Finally, the pro-inflammatory/pain factors, TNF[alpha] and IL-1[beta], and the vascularization factors, VEGF and PDGFbb, significantly correlated with the presence of the neural innervation…" @default.
