Safety and functional evaluation of a synthetic lamina cover that replaces lost autologous spinal bone after laminectomy, in a sheep and human study
Application of the SLC was safe and showed benefit as a shield to replace the autologous spinal lamina postlaminectomy. In its presence, functional recovery not only was faster, but also overall more pronounced.
