[Stress changes of upper lumbar facet joint after discectomy and artificial disc replacement].
To explore the influence of discectomy and artificial disc replacement on the upper lumbar facet joint and to provide the evidence for use of artificial disc replacement. ⋯ The stress of upper lumbar facet joint reduced after discectomy, it implies that simply discectomy may change biomechanics of lumbar and lead to secondary lumbar structure degeneration. The stress of upper lumbar facet joint is close to the normal value after artificial disc replacement, it implies that artificial disc replacement may protect lumbar structure. It provides some biomechanics foundation and evidence for artificial disc replacement.
