Biomechanical Evaluation of Anterior Plate Fixation With Cage for Basilar Invagination With Atlantoaxial Dislocation: A Cadaveric Study
Anterior plate fixation techniques demonstrated superior resistance to lateral bending and rotational forces compared to posterior approaches, with clival plate fixation exhibiting optimal biomechanical stability for BI-AAD. Variations in cage height exhibited negligible impact on stability when internal fixation achieved adequate rigidity.
