Study Summary

This study is a single-center, prospective randomized clinical study intended to compare and evaluate the efficacy of subjects who are treated with bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) and allograft to iliac crest bone grafts (ICBG) during posterior lumbar/lumbosacral spinal fusion.

Primary Outcome

Spinal fusion grade refers to the assessment of how well vertebrae fuse together after surgery, often evaluated using imaging like CT scans or radiographs. Grades typically range from complete fusion (Grade I) to non-union or pseudarthrosis (Grade IV), indicating varying degrees of bone healing and stability.
