TLDR
This study confirms previous reports of a higher rate of RE in ALIF procedures using rhBMP-2 and an open anterior approach to the spine, and confirms the magnitude of the RE effect may be increased with concomitant prostatic disease treatments.

A Review of the Clinical Side Effects of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2

TL;DR: BMP-2 is a potent osteoinductive cytokine that has indeed revolutionized the bone graft substitute market; however, it simultaneously has accrued a worrisome side effect profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complications with the use of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) in spine surgery

TL;DR: This article will provide the reader with a good understanding of the reported complications associated with rhBMP-2 use and ultimately help recognize its safety spectrum and limits for better clinical application.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safety and effectiveness of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 for spinal fusion: a meta-analysis of individual-participant data.

TL;DR: Recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 increases fusion rates, reduces pain by a clinically insignificant amount, and increases early postsurgical pain compared with ICBG, and evidence of increased cancer incidence is inconclusive.

Safety and Effectiveness of Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 for Spinal Fusion

TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that rhBMP-2 increases fusion rates, reduces pain by a clinically insignificant amount, and increases early postsurgical pain compared with ICBG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complications due to the use of BMP/INFUSE in spine surgery: The evidence continues to mount.

TL;DR: There is mounting evidence in the spinal literature that utilizing BMP/INFUSE in spinal fusions contributes to major perioperative and postoperative morbidity.

Journal ArticleDOI

Better reporting of harms in randomized trials: an extension of the CONSORT statement.

TL;DR: This work searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library using a wide array of terms related to harms and identified pertinent evidence and made recommendations on the appropriate reporting of harms in RCTs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A critical review of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 trials in spinal surgery: emerging safety concerns and lessons learned

TL;DR: An estimate of adverse events associated with rhBMP-2 use in spine fusion is suggested ranging from 10 to 50 times the original estimates reported in the industry-sponsored peer-reviewed publications, as well as a clear increased risk of complications and adverse events to patients receiving rhB MP-2 in spinal fusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion Using rhBMP-2 With Tapered Interbody Cages

TL;DR: Lumbar fusion using rhBMP-2 and a tapered titanium fusion cage can yield a solid union and eliminate the need for harvesting iliac crest bone graft in patients with degenerative lumbar disc disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safety profile for the clinical use of bone morphogenetic proteins in the spine.

TL;DR: Findings show that RhBMP-2 has an antiproliferative effect on many cancer cells, and no evidence exists that it is carcinogenic, and it is unlikely that OP-1 has carcinogenic potential.
