Biomechanical analysis of the patient-specific appropriate correction angle for cervical kyphosis in multilevel anterior cervical discectomy and fusion: a finite element analysis

Key Points

• Moderate correction angles significantly reduce postoperative complications, enhancing recovery post-surgery.
• Analysis showed that using specific correction angles can lower mechanical stress by improving alignment during surgery.
• Biomechanical analysis of cervical kyphosis employed finite element methods to simulate and predict outcomes of correction surgeries.
• These findings support optimized surgical planning and implant design, emphasizing the need for individualized approaches in surgery.
