Purpose
The aims of the present study were to compare the biomechanical effects on the adjacent segments after mono-segmental floating fusion with posterior semi-rigid or rigid stabilization, and to evaluate the effect of the amount of fusion mass on the biomechanical differences.
Methods
A detailed, nonlinear L1–S1 finite element model ha...
