Combined Anterior-Posterior Decompression and Fusion for Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy.
We conducted a study to evaluate the operative details, perioperative complications, and short-term outcomes associated with combined anterior-posterior decompression and fusion (CAPDF) for treating cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 21 patients who underwent CAPDF at our institution. Pertinent information, including demographics, surgery indication...

level, pupil reaction, and corneal reflex. However, there were many discrepancies in individual patients so that the vestibulo-ocular reflex afforded useful information additional to that obtained from traditional tests. Bilateral abnormal motor activity or absent pupil reactions were often associated with relatively unimpaired vestibulo-ocular reflex responses. There was no correlation between...

متن کاملSurgically treated cervical myelopathy: a functional outcome comparison study between multilevel anterior cervical decompression fusion with instrumentation and posterior laminoplasty.
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Multilevel cervical myelopathy can be treated with anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) or corpectomy via the anterior approach and laminoplasty via the posterior approach. Till date, there is no proven superior approach. PURPOSE To elucidate any potential advantage of one approach over the other with regard to clinical midterm outcomes in this study. STUDY DESI...
متن کاملAnterior decompression and fusion in cervical spondylosis
Cervical spondylosis is the most frequent reason for progressive impairment of spinal cord and nerve roots, which is clinically manifested as cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM), cervical radiculopathy, or both. Eighty operated patients are presented (49 men and 31 women), who had evidence of CSM and/ or radiculopathy. Age ranged from 26 to 80 years (mean 50 years). Depending on the predomina...
