From: Biomechanical effect of endplate defects on the intermediate vertebral bone in consecutive two-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion: a finite element analysis

Fig. 1

A A three-dimensional finite element (FE) model was developed. B-G  Two-group models of two-level anterior cervical discectomy with fusion (ACDF) using different internal fixation were established. B-C C4-C6 implanted by the zero-profile device (ZP). C-D C4-C6 with the endplate injury implanted by the ZP. E-F C4-C6 implanted by the cage-plate device (CP). F-G C4-C6 with the endplate injury implanted by the CP
