Synopsis
85 patients scheduled for single level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) were randomized to one of two graft materials. PEEK cages of one group were filled with a hydroxyapatite and demineralized bone matrix (HA/DBM) mixture, and in the other group with a hydroxyapatite and beta-tricalcium phosphate (HA/B-TCP) mixture. The purpose of this study was to test the noninferiority of the HA...
