Kinematics of total facet replacement (TFAS-TL) with total disc replacement
BACKGROUND Total disc replacement (TDR) and total facet replacement (TFR) have been the focus of recent kinematics evaluations. Yet their concurrent function as a total joint replacement of the lumbar spine's 3-joint complex has not been comprehensively reported. This study evaluated the effect of a TFR specifically designed to replace the natural facets and supplement the function with the nat...

متن کاملLumbar total disc replacement: a numerical study.
AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical effects of the Maverick(R) disc prosthesis at the implanted and adjacent level by the finite element (FE) method. MATERIALS AND METHODS A 3D FE model of the L3-L5 segment was built. To simulate the different physiological movements (flexion, extension, lateral bending, axial rotation) pure moments of 10 Nm were applied. To evaluate t...
