Development and validation of a nomogram to predict the risk of adjacent segment disease after transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Adjacent segment disease (ASD) is a common and serious complication that can develop in the mid- to long-term after lumbar fusion surgery. However, the underlying mechanisms of ASD are not yet fully understood. This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for ASD in patients who underwent transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) for lumbar degenerative diseases.

Methods

Patients with lumbar degenerative disease who underwent TLIF between January 2015 and December 2016 were included in the retrospective study. The participants were divided into two groups: ASD and non-ASD. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors influencing ASD after TLIF surgery. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC
