Clinical/Radiological Outcomes Associated With CONDUIT™ Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (ALIF) Cage System With Supplemental Fixation for Treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease at One or Two Contiguous Spinal Levels From L2-S1
This will be a prospective, multi-centre study at a National Tertiary Referral Centre for spinal trauma and spinal cord injuries, serving a catchment area of 5 million people. This study will follow patients undergoing anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) procedure. This trial seeks to evaluate the performance of this CE-marked device, and to assess outcomes in frail and non-frail patient cohorts. The CONDUIT™ ALIF Cage System are intervertebral body fusion devices intended for use for anterior lumbar interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients. The devices are 3D printed cellular titanium implants that feature 80% porous macro-, micro- and nanostructures, are designed to mimic cortical and cancellous bone, and facilitate fusion. This pilot study hypothesizes that the use of CONDUIT ALIF Cage system to treat lumbar degenerative disc disease will achieve results comparable to historical cases using SYNFIX Systems.
• Aged ≥ 18 years old
• Consenting patients undergoing anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) procedure whom the Conduit cage system is appropriate will be included in this study.
