Neurosurgery . 2019 Apr; 86(3):343-347. PMID: 31034561
Background: Chronic low back pain (CLBP) is a primary indication for opioid therapy. Objective: To evaluate the hypothesis that CLBP patients reporting reduced opioid use have superior functional outcomes following...

Appl Health Econ Health Policy . 2012 May; 10(4):273-84. PMID: 22591065
Background: Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) can be treated by nonsurgical management or by minimally invasive surgical treatment including vertebroplasty and balloon kyphoplasty. Objective: The purpose of the present study was...

Kurtz S, Hozack W, Purtill J, Marcolongo M, Kraay M, Goldberg V, et al.
Clin Orthop Relat Res . 2006 Oct; 453:47-57. PMID: 17031310
Our research group developed an implant retrieval program to study in vivo degradation of polyethylene. We now have evidence to support our hypothesis that degradation of radiation-sterilized polyethylene occurs in...

Race A, Mann K, Edidin A
J Biomech . 2006 Jun; 40(5):1002-10. PMID: 16797554
The goal of this study was to provide material property data for the cement/bone composite resulting from the introduction of PMMA bone cement into human vertebral bodies. A series of...

Kurtz S, Rimnac C, Hozack W, Turner J, Marcolongo M, Goldberg V, et al.
J Bone Joint Surg Am . 2005 Apr; 87(4):815-23. PMID: 15805212
Background: Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene degrades during storage in air following gamma sterilization, but the extent of in vivo degradation remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to quantify...

Villarraga M, Bellezza A, Harrigan T, Cripton P, Kurtz S, Edidin A
J Spinal Disord Tech . 2005 Feb; 18(1):84-91. PMID: 15687858
It remains unclear whether adjacent vertebral body fractures are related to the natural progression of osteoporosis or if adjacent fractures are a consequence of augmentation with bone cement. Experimental or...

J Arthroplasty . 2003 Mar; 18(2):140-8. PMID: 12629602
We evaluated the clinical, radiographic, and survivorship outcomes in a series of 418 threaded hydroxyapatite-coated acetabular cups (Arc2f; Osteonics, Allendale, NJ) implanted in a consecutive series of 384 patients undergoing...

Manley M, DAntonio J, Capello W, Edidin A
Clin Orthop Relat Res . 2002 Dec; (405):129-37. PMID: 12461364
Long-term clinical studies of total hip replacement suggest a direct relationship between bearing wear and periprosthetic osteolysis, particularly if polyethylene wear is greater than a threshold value of 0.1 mm...

Dumbleton J, Manley M, Edidin A
J Arthroplasty . 2002 Aug; 17(5):649-61. PMID: 12168184
The establishment of a polyethylene wear rate threshold for the development of osteolysis at the hip would allow surgeons to identify patients at risk for osteolysis and to implement selective,...
