The purpose of this study is to report the radiographic, clinical, and functional outcomes of a consecutive series of patients diagnosed with single or bilateral degenerative disc disease between L4 and S1, that have been treated with an anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF), anterior only surgical approach, and InQu Bone Graft Extender and Substitute for bony fusion and instrumentation. Patients that decide to undergo an Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (ALIF) surgery \[a surgical procedure that joins two or more lumbar vertebrae (small bones of the spine) together into one solid bony structure by approaching the spine through the abdomen (front of the body) and placing a bone graft in between the vertebral bodies where the disc usually lies\], are invited to participate in an orthopaedic research study. This study will compare patients that have been treated with an anterior lumbar interbody fusion using InQu Bone Graft Extender \& Substitute to published data for a stand alone spinal fusion surgery, where InFuse bone graft is placed between the transverse processes \[small bony projections off the right and left side of each bone in your spine\] of the affected vertebrae. X-rays, daily activities, and how patients are doing will be evaluated at specific time points during this study. The hypothesis of this study is that patients diagnosed with degenerative disc disease treated with an anterior lumbar interbody fusion, anterior only surgical approach (incision through the abdomen), using InQu Bone Graft Extender and Substitute and instrumented fixation have comparable radiographic (x-rays), functional (daily activities), and clinical (how the patient is doing) outcomes when compared to published data for use of InFuse in stand-alone fusion.
DTRAX Graft is used to relieve nerve pressure in the neck in order to provide relief for Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease. This study is being conducted to determine the effectiveness of the graft, and to find out whether or not it provides better results or faster healing than traditional ways of performing surgery for Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease.
Degenerative disc disease (DDD) refers to a syndrome in which a degenerating disc causes chronic back pain, significantly impacting an individual's ability to function. The condition is most commonly diagnosed in the lumbosacral spinal segments L3-S1. The condition often starts with an injury to the disc space. The injury weakens the disc and creates excessive motion at the corresponding vertebral level. Over time, the segmental instability and associated neurological compromise combined with ongoing inflammatory processes that occur in and around the disc produce low back pain. The reparative processes in the disc are poor, thus the painful symptoms can become chronic. Premature degeneration at adjacent levels of the spine remains one of the more vexing problems facing spinal surgeons when advising relatively young people to consider lumbar fusion surgery. Stopping the motion changes the mechanics of the back (which is designed for motion and flexibility) and results in the transfer of the loads and stresses to the adjacent vertebral segments. It is therefore intuitive to pursue total disc replacement, which allows for the treatment of pain due to DDD while re-establishing motion and stability, load distribution, and restoring the disc height, as an alternative to spinal fusion surgery. The study hypothesis is that military personnel receiving Total Disc Replacement will return to the same level of active duty performance as at the time of their most recent successful physical readiness test.

In this study, we will use advanced and newly available MR imaging techniques at 3 Tesla (including in situ axial loading and quantitative T1rho, T2, and diffusion measurements) to assess the intervertebral discs and adjacent vertebrae in patients with lumbar back pain scheduled for back surgery (n=20), patients with degenerative disease without classic discogenic back pain (n=10), patients who had discectomies for herniated discs (n=5), and age-matched volunteers without back pain (n=10). In all patients standard imaging procedures will also be performed, including radiographs, standard MRI at 1.5 Tesla and discography. All patients will have specimen of the intervertebral disc harvested at surgery and pathologic analysis and spectroscopy of these specimen will be performed. Post-surgical findings/outcome combined with discography will serve as a standard of reference for the identification of the painful disc(s). The diagnostic performance of the new techniques in assessing the painful disc will be evaluated. We will collect disc specimens from 50 patients undergoing back surgery but did not have pre-surgical MR imaging. These disc specimens will be analyzed in the same manner as the specimens collected from surgical patients who had pre-surgical MRI. This study will serve as a pilot study for a larger project focusing on advanced imaging of the painful intervertebral disc. We hypothesis that advanced, dedicated MR examinations at 3T can identify painful degenerated discs in patients with chronic lumbar back pain.
