Journal of The Medical Association of Thailand, 09/19/07
Sae-Jung, S., et al. - Conclusion: The stainless steel 316 L KKU expandable cage for anterior spinal instrumentation can withstand the maximal thoracolumbar physiologic compression load without failure whereas its expandable property enable it to fill and fit in the space reaching the height of 35 mm. Therefore, the insertion of this device into a space after thoracolumbar or lumbar corpectomy or vertebrectomy for the vertebral osteomyelitis or vertebral metastasis is appropriate. The device can also stabilize the spine and tolerate the maximal physiologic compression load of the thoracolumbar vertebrae. Therefore, the device helps decrease the need for bone graft or bone substitute in these patients
