Structural Allograft versus Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Implants in patients undergoing Spinal Fusion Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Interbody spacers have been successfully used in spinal fusion procedures with the aim to restore disc height, provide stability, and promote bone fusion. The authors evaluated the efficacy of structural body allograft versus polyetheretherketone (PEEK) implants in patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery. ⋯ Our results corroborate that structural allografts are highly effective in promoting bony fusion compared with PEEK implants in patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery.
