摘要
The use of electrical stimulation as an adjunct to enhance lumbar spinal fusion continues to gain popularity. The different types of electrical stimulation and their varying effects on posterior and anterior spinal fusion are discussed. The selection of an electrical stimulation device should be based on the clinical and experimental evidence of efficacy.
