الوصف: Background: Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) interbody implants are shaped anatomically, with a convex superior aspect, or lordotically, with an angle and flat surfaces. However, the effect of implant shape on cervical sagittal balance (CSB) is not well described. Methods: Of the 192 cases reviewed from 2018 to 2019, 118 were included with matching pre- and postoperative imaging. Cases were categorized by interbody implant type (anatomic or lordotic) and number of levels fused (1-level, 2-level, etc.). SurgiMap was used to measure cervical lordosis (CL), C2–C7 sagittal vertical axis (cSVA), T1 slope (T1S), and T1S minus CL (T1S-CL) on pre- and postoperative imaging. Pre- and postoperative parameters were compared within and between each cohort. Change in CL (ΔCL), cSVA (ΔcSVA), and T1S-CL (ΔT1S-CL) were calculated as the difference between pre- and postoperative values and were compared accordingly (1) anatomic versus lordotic and (2) 1-level versus 2-level versus 3-level fusion. Results: Thirty-nine (33.1%), 57 (48.3%), and 22 (18.6%) cases comprised the anatomic, lordotic, and mixed (anatomic and lordotic) groups, respectively. ACDFs improved CL and T1S-CL by 5.71° (p<.001) and 3.32° (p<.01), respectively. CL was improved in the lordotic (5.27°; p<.01) and anatomic (4.57°; p<.01) groups, while only the lordotic group demonstrated improvement in T1S-CL (3.4°; p=.02). There were no differences in ΔCL (p=.70), ΔcSVA (p=.89), or ΔT1S-CL (p=.1) between the groups. Two- and 3-level fusions improved CL by 7.48° (p<.01) and 9.62° (p<.01), and T1S-CL by 4.43° (p<.01) and 5.96° (p<.01), respectively. Conclusions: Overall, ACDFs significantly improved CL and T1S-CL however, there were no differences in CSB correction between the anatomic and lordotic groups. Two- and 3-level fusions more effectively improved CL (vs. single-level) and T1S-CL (vs. 3-level). These results suggest that implants should continue to be personalized to the patient's anatomy, however, future research is ...
