The present prospective, randomized study, compares the spinal fusion obtained after instrumentation and the use of a biologic product (patient's mesenchymal cells obtained from his/her own bone marrow which will be fixed in human bone tissue form a donor), with the current procedure that consists in instrumented spinal fusion and the use of each patient's bone obtained from his/her iliac crest. The working hypothesis proposes that the tissue engineering is a valid and useful technique to achieve bone regeneration, avoiding the need for obtaining patient's iliac crest and its associated morbidity.
