Retrospective Analysis of Clinical Management Strategies for Cage Retropulsion Following Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion
Conservative treatment yields satisfactory outcomes in mild, symptomatic CR patients, particularly for low back pain. For patients with a CR distance less than 8.8 mm, conservative treatment and revision surgery showed comparable outcomes, whereas when the CR distance is ≥ 8.8 mm, revision surgery was recommended to improve clinical results. Both conservative treatment and revision surgery can yield favorable outcomes when appropriately indicated.
