Risk factors for high disability at FU
Risk factor
Pathology Pain duration Secondary degeneration^ < 1 year
Smoking as a Predictor of negative Outcome.
426
patt. 54.5% smokers > 10 cigarettes : less patients satisfaction higher risk of nonunion. Smoking cessation for 6 months prior to surgery normalize fusion rates
March 2003 Back pain and neurogenic complication
Adjacent level break down!
May 2003: Decompression and elongation of fusion
August 2003, Increasing pain back pain during 2 months, bed ridden.
Goals in lumbar fusion:
Pain
relief Recovery of neurologic impairment and dysfunction Restore sagittal balance
200.000 Fusions/year in US US-market tripling since 1997 20-30% annual growth
A 63 year old woman with neurogenic claudication and back pain. In 2001 she had segmental decompression and instrumented posterolateral fusion. Primary uncomplicated .
Only few patient-centered such as outcomes for pain, disability and capacity for work. Lack of longterm results and comparison with natural history or conservative treatment. 10 RCTs on instrumented versus noninstrumented fusion- no effect on outcome, higher complication rate with instrumentation. CONCLUSION: No scientific evidence about effectiveness of any form of surgical decompression or fusion for deg lumbar spondylosis
Improved clinical outcome was associated with:
Patient global assessment Score valid VAS scales responsive Pain drawing not predictive.
Non-neurotic personality traits Radiographic signs of severe disc degeneration Young age and short sick leave
Circumferential fusion versus posterolateral fusion.

Long-Term Functional Outcome of Pedicle Screw Instrumentation as a Support for Posterolateral Spinal Fusion. Randomized Clinical Study with a 5- Year Follow-up. SPINE 27, 12, 1269, 2002
The Evidence Base Lumbar Spinal Fusion
No effect of pedicle screw instrumentation on functional outcome compared to posterolateral fusion alone in RCT´s!

Fusion rates are highly dependent on quantity of autograft. A prospective study.
