Finite element modeling of the full lumbar spine with an intervertebral disc nucleus replacement device
Courtesy of Spinal Stabilization Technologies, LLC
Introduction
Nucleus replacement technologies are a minimally invasive treatment for degenerative tSsc disease. Nucleus replacement may better restore the natural biomechanics of the spine compared to alternative treatments. Finite element (FE) modeling can be used to determine the biomechanics associated with nucleus replacement devices. A novel nucleus replacement device was developed consisting of a conforming silicone implant with two chambers. FE modeling compared the biomechanics associated with the novel device, a solid silicone device, and a normal dtec. A model of the full lumbar spine was used to investigate the
effect of device placement in one level on adjacent levels.
