Lumbar fusion using a carbon-fiber PEEK pedicle screw system combined with a carbon-fiber PEEK TLIF cage: a prospective, multicenter study

Abstract Background Carbon-fiber-reinforced polyether ether ketone (CF-PEEK) is a radiolucent, non-metallic implant material used for instrumented lumbar spondylodesis. Clinical studies of pedicle screw systems employing this material, especially for degenerative indications, are scant. Methods We c...
