The choice between anterior and posterior lumbar fusion depends on various factors, including the specific condition being treated, the patient's anatomy, and surgeon preference. Anterior interbody fusion may offer advantages such as less muscle disruption, reduced postoperative pain, and better restoration of disc height, while posterior fusion can provide direct access to the spinal structures and may be preferred for certain types of instability or deformity. Ultimately, the effectiveness of either approach varies by individual cases, and a thorough evaluation by a spine specialist is essential for determining the best option.

Which cord of the brachial plexus gives the radial nerve?
The radial nerve is derived from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, which is formed by the fusion of the posterior divisions of the upper, middle, and lower trunks of the brachial plexus.
What is the artery resulting from fusion from of the left and right vertebrals?
The basilar artery is formed from the fusion of the left and right vertebral arteries at the base of the brainstem. It supplies blood to the brain and helps to form the posterior cerebral circulation.
What is the medial ridge along the posterior surface of the sacrum?

How is the production of electricity by fission better than nuclear fusion?
In principle fusion should be better for the environment because it does not produce the active fission products. The snag is that it has not been made to work yet, and won't be for many years to come, so as a practical way of producing electricity it does not come into play, and we have to say fission is better than a non-existent fusion
The pediatrician and clinic explain to parent of a newborn son sufer from cleft palate she tell the that the normal palate form anterior to posterior patternthe child palatine have fuse?
The pediatrician and clinic are likely explaining to the parent that their newborn son has a cleft palate, which means the palate did not fully fuse during development. The normal palate forms from front to back, but in this case, there is a gap in the palate due to the fusion not occurring properly. Treatment options such as surgery may be discussed to correct the cleft palate.
Structures form by the fusion on the anterior root and posterior nerve root?

What is lumbar interbody fusion-transforaminal?
TLIF or Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion is a surgery used to stabilize the spine. This procedure is used to stabilize the shock absorbers between the vertebrae.
Which cord of the brachial plexus gives the radial nerve?
The radial nerve is derived from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, which is formed by the fusion of the posterior divisions of the upper, middle, and lower trunks of the brachial plexus.
How long before your body recovers from surgery for scoliosis?
It depends what type of scoliosis surgery you are having. Mine took four hours, and I had posterior spinal fusion with bone grafting from the hip. If you have anterior spinal fusion, it will most likely take longer, as the surgery is done by entering the front or side of your body. With posterior, they reach your spine by entering your back.
What is trufuse?
TruFUSE is a novel posterior spinal fusion technique, without the use of 'hardware', ie rods and screws....
What has the author Michael John McMaster written?

What is the artery resulting from fusion from of the left and right vertebrals?
The basilar artery is formed from the fusion of the left and right vertebral arteries at the base of the brainstem. It supplies blood to the brain and helps to form the posterior cerebral circulation.
What immediate treatment should be given for lumbar spondolisis patient?
There are few reports of the treatment of lumbar tuberculous spondylitis using the posterior approach. Between January 1999 and February 2004, 16 patients underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion with autogenous iliac-bone grafting and pedicle screw instrumentation. Their mean age at surgery was 51 years (28 to 66). The mean follow-up period was 33 months (24 to 48). The clinical outcome was assessed using the Frankel neurological classification and the Kirkaldy-Willis criteria. On the Frankel classification, one patient improved by two grades (C to E), seven by one grade, and eight showed no change. The Kirkaldy-Willis functional outcome was classified as excellent in eight patients, good in five, fair in two and poor in one. Bony union was achieved within one year in 15 patients. The mean pre-operative lordotic angle was 27.8° (9° to 45°) which improved by the final follow-up to 35.8° (28° to 48°). Post-operative complications occurred in four patients, transient root injury in two, a superficial wound infection in one and a deep wound infection in one, in whom the implant was removed. Our results show that a posterior lumbar interbody fusion with autogenous iliac-bone grafting and pedicle screw instrumentation for tuberculous spondylitis through the posterior approach can give satisfactory results.
Witch is better a fusion paintball gun or an Ion paintball gun?
fusion is much better ions need to be fully upgraded
Is there a comma before status post in the following sentence - She continues to experience neck pain status post anterior cervical decompression and fusion?
A comma would not typically be used. This is not a typical sentence though. It appears to be medical notes, perhaps from a chart or patient file.One possible punctuation is below:"She continues to experience neck pain. Status: post anterior cervical decompression and fusion."
