Spinal fusion
（重定向自Vertebral fusion）
Spinal fusion, also called spondylodesis or spondylosyndesis, is a neurosurgical or orthopedic surgical technique that joins two or more vertebrae. Surgeons use supplementary bone tissue—either from the patient (autograft) or a donor (allograft)—or artificial bone substitutes in conjunction with the body's natural bone growth (osteoblastic) processes to fuse two or more adjoining vertebrae.
