Abstract：Objective To evaluate the three-dimensional biomechanic stability of a new fixable anterior cervical mesh in a corpectomy model.Methods We designed and produced the novel mesh.And Six fresh male cadaver cervical specimens were used.The intact, C5 corpectomy fixed with mesh and plate, C5 corpectomy fixed with fixable mesh were tested.range of motion of the fixed segments were measured under non-contact photographic recording system.Results The fixable mesh can provide enough stability, but not as stable as mesh-plate mode, especially in flexion movement.Conclusion The fixable mesh can provide enough stability after anterior cervical corpecomy.Although not as stable as mesh-plate, the new mode may be favor to fusion.
