Authors' recommendations:
There is low quality evidence on the clinical effectiveness of lumbar non fusion dynamic stabilization for the treatment of degenerative pathologies of the lumbar spine.Given the lack of evidence on clinical effectiveness of lumbar non fusion dynamic stabilization implants, no credible cost-effectiveness analysis can be performed.Given the lack of data about the prevalence of these affections (clinical indications) and given the lack of data about frequency of surgical interventions for decompression and stabilization (dynamic stabilization or fusion) of lumbar spine, it is impossible to estimate the budget impact of a hypothetical reimbursement of these new surgical technologies for our country.
