ACDF Using Structural Allograft vs. Tritanium C (NCT04388332)
Comparison of Clinical Outcomes Following ACDF With Instrumentation Using Structural Allograft vs. Tritanium C
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This is an observational, descriptive, prospective and retrospective data collection study. The purpose of this study is to observe radiographic outcomes of patients who will undergo anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) utilizing Tritanium C (Stryker Spine). The rate of fusion success and adverse events will be compared retrospectively to patients who underwent instrumented ACDF utilizing structural allograft bone with plates.
