A prospective randomized cohort study on 3D-printed artificial vertebral body in single-level anterior cervical corpectomy for cervical spondylotic myelopathy

Abstract

For CSM patients undergoing SL-ACCF, the EBM-AVB group demonstrated comparable outcomes regarding patient cervical alignment, neurologic function, and HRQoL in comparison with the TMC group. Furthermore, the use of EBM-AVB was associated with decreased loss of the height of the fusion mass and a lower rate for severe implant subsidence.
