Development and internal validation of a risk score for subsidence of expandable spacers in transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) surgery

Introduction: Subsidence of transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) cages is a common complication. Little is known about risk factors for cage subsidence (CS) of expandable spacers. Research question: To develop a score for CS risk stratification. Material and methods: We reviewed consecutive...
