Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: There are various implants used for vertebral body reconstructions after vertebral body resection for management of acute thoracolumbar fractures, posttraumatic deformity with cord compression, neoplastic disorders and vertebral body infection. Reconstruction is commonly performed using structural autograft or allograft bone or metallic implants, such as Harms cages. These implants can be further supplemented with anterior and/or posterior fixation. Although the structural bone and cage implants are successful in achieving stability, kyphosis correction with these static implants may be difficult.
