Popis:	One hundred and forty-seven patients underwent anterior interbody fusion for lumbar disc derangement and lumbar spondylolisthesis. The gross fusion rate was 93% of the disc derangement and 71.5% of the spondylolisthesis. The fusion rate was related to the level of operation and to the number of discs operated on. In the patients with fifth lumbar spondylolisthesis, nonunion occurred in 50% and fusion rate was lowest. In those patients with slip rate above 30%, anterior spinal fusion with segmental spinal fusion seemed to be much better than without this. For improvement of the fusion rate, the Baycast spica is the most effective in restricting the mobility of the lower part of the lumbosacral spine. Baycast spica is used chiefly postoperatively.
