Multicenter Study
Functional and radiological outcomes of 360 degrees fusion of three or more motion levels in the lumbar spine for degenerative disc disease.
This is a single-center, multisurgeon, retrospective study of radiologic and functional outcome measures at a minimum 2-year follow-up. ⋯ The surgical treatment of lumbar degenerative disc disease by 360 degrees fusion should be considered for properly selected patients. The goal of surgery is reduction, not elimination of disability.
