Description
Jianying Zheng and co-authors tested spine fixation methods in 2025 using human specimens in the lab. The work deals with a fault where the skull base presses into the top of the spine and the top joint slips. Surgeons can fix this from the front with a plate or from the back with a larger setup.
The team tested seven specimens in several states, from intact to fixed by each method. All fixation methods cut movement sharply compared with the faulty state. The front plates resisted side bending and twisting better than the back method. One front method, using a clival plate, gave the steadiest result. Changing the height of a small cage had little effect.
