Perioperative Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Agonist Use and Rates of Pseudarthrosis After Single-Level Lumbar Fusion: A Large Retrospective Cohort Study

Pseudarthrosis is a common surgical complication after arthrodesis and is associated with poor clinical outcomes. The association between glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonist use and pseudarthrosis is yet to be explored. This study aims to examine the association of GLP-1 agonists with rates of pseudarthrosis in patients undergoing single-level lumbar fusion.
