From: The improved bioactive n-HA/PA66 cage versus the PEEK cage in anterior cervical fusion: results from a 6-year follow-up and a case-matched study

Fig. 3

A 49-year-old female patient underwent ACDF with the PEEK cage due to C5/6 disc herniation. a Preoperative lateral radiograph of the cervical spine and narrowing of the disc space between C5/6. b Postoperative radiograph indicated that the SA and IH improved. c The 8-year follow-up radiograph showed stable SA without subsidence. d, e Three-dimensional CT at the 8-year follow-up showed grade 5 fusion. ACDF, anterior cervical decompression and fusion; SA, segmental lordosis; IH, interbody height; CT, computed tomography; PEEK, polyetheretherketone
