Dynamic stabilization for unilateral spinal pathologies: clinical efficacy and safety outcomes
Unilateral dynamic stabilization presents promising results in terms of stability, improved clinical outcomes, and reduced operation time and cost for patients with unilateral spinal pathologies. This approach offers effective stabilization without compromising mobility and biomechanics. However, caution is warranted when applying unilateral dynamic stabilization for multiple-level operations, as it may entail an increased risk of instrumentation failure.
