The results of this prospective, randomized study support the use of CBGS as a standalone bone graft substitute for autograft in single-level XLIF surgery. The clinical performance and safety outcomes reported here are consistent with published evidence on CBGS. Improvements in patient-reported back pain, leg pain, and disability outcomes were comparable between the CBGS and autograft groups.
