Evaluation of OP-1 in a rabbit model of lumbar fusions

  • Chapter
Book cover Bone Morphogenetic Proteins

Abstract

Lumbar fusion is a common surgical procedure for which there are multiple approaches and techniques. It has recently been estimated that more than 185 thousand spinal fusions are performed each year in the United States alone. There are different types of lumbar fusion with posterolateral intertransverse fusion using iliac crest autograft being the most common. This type of fusion is used in the treatment of a wide variety of conditions including spondylolisthesis and discogenic disease.
