Bone cortical tissues reorganize and remodel in response to tensile forces acting on them, while compressive forces cause atrophy. However, implants support most of the payload. Bones do not regenerate, and stress shielding occurs. The aim is to analyze the biomechanical behavior of a lumbar cage to study the implant's stress shielding. The ASTM E-9 standard was used with the necessary adjustments to perform compression tests on lumbar and thoracic porcine spinal vertebrae. Twelve cases were analyzed: six with the metal prosthesis and six with the PEEK implant. A mathematical model based on the Hertz contact theory is proposed to assess the stress shielding for endoprosthesis used in spine pathologies. The lumbar spacer (screw) helps to reduce the stress shielding effect due to the ACME thread. The best interspinous spacer is the PEEK screw. It does not embed in bone. The deformation capability increases by 11.5% and supports 78.6 kg more than a system without any interspinous spacer.
