Review of outcomes after back implant surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study looks at how patients are doing after having back surgery with a special implant (TOPS or TOPS with VersaLink) to help with spinal stability. It reviews past and current information to understand the long-term results of this surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study follows patients visiting a spine surgery department to better understand how care is provided and how patients do over time. It helps doctors improve treatment for spine problems like degeneration, deformity, injury, infection, or tumors.
This study looks at recovery after planned (elective) surgery for common lower-back (“lumbar”) spine problems like slipped discs, disc bulges, and narrowing of the spinal canal. You may be asked to complete online questionnaires, and the study uses your answers to understand symptoms and outcomes after surgery.
This study tracks how well spinal implants (Titania systems) and bone-filling materials (BONEGRAFT) work after surgery and whether patients experience any problems. Researchers will follow patients after cervical or lower spine surgery to confirm these devices are safe and effective in real-world use.
This trial studies how well specific lumbar (lower back) implant “cages” help fuse vertebrae in people with degenerative disc disease, spinal slippage, narrowing, curvature, or forward-bending deformity. It may help by testing an approach to improve stability and reduce symptoms after surgery.
This trial checks how well the SpineVision Lumis, Plus, or Ulis spine fixation systems work and stay safe in the lower back and mid-back area. It is for people who already have one of these systems implanted.
This study looks at whether using a specific attachment system (VersaTie) with pedicle screws can help prevent problems near the top of a long spinal fusion. It compares outcomes in adults who are planning long posterior spine fusion surgery using this approach.
