Human Autograft Mesenchymal Stem Cell Mediated Stabilization of The Degenerative Lumbar Spine

Status unconfirmed

Conditions studied: Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease, Lower Back Pain, Chronic Lower Back Pain

In brief

Investigate the potential of tissue grafting that includes human mesenchymal stem cells in the repair and potential stabilization of the degenerative Lumbar disk and facet joint denovo and at the time of surgical reconstruction. Our hypothesis proposes that stabilization will help restore normal structure and function in the degenerative lumbar spine may decrease chronic low back pain associated with the biomechanical demise of the degenerative disk or facet and may improve the natural history of adjacent segment disease found after spinal surgery.
