In addition, 15 sheep were allocated to three groups; one served as controls and the other two underwent TFC (KC) or NiTi\u2010FC (NT). Nondestructive mechanical tests were performed in pure compression, extension, lateral bending and torsion. The operated spines were photographed regularly to assess changes in interbody height and degree of fusion. The animals were killed at 6 months for histologic testing.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Biomechanical tests showed both the strength and axial stiffness of the <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">NT<\/jats:styled-content> and <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">KC<\/jats:styled-content> groups were significantly higher than those of the control group and L group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05).
