Impact of rod material and spinopelvic parameters on distal junctional failure following lumbar fusion: a comparative study of peek and rigid titanium rods

PEEK rods were associated with a lower incidence of DJF compared to rigid titanium rods. Postoperative PI-LL mismatch and changes in lumbar lordosis and PI-LL mismatch are key predictors to prevent DJF.

PEEK rods were associated with a lower incidence of DJF compared to rigid titanium rods. Postoperative PI-LL mismatch and changes in lumbar lordosis and PI-LL mismatch are key predictors to prevent DJF.
