Adjacent Segment Pathology after Anterior Cervical Fusion
Anterior cervical fusion has become a standard of care for numerous pathologic conditions of the cervical spine. However, subsequent development of clinically significant disc disease at levels adjacent to fused discs is a serious long-term complication of this procedure. As more patients live longer after surgery, it is foreseeable that adjacent segment pathology (ASP) will develop in increasi...

متن کاملSurvivorship Analysis of Clinical Adjacent-Segment Pathology After Single-Level Cervical Fusion
BACKGROUND Clinical adjacent-segment pathology (CASP) is an important problem after anterior cervical surgery. The purpose of this study was to predict prevalence of CASP and determine the possible risk factors for CASP after single-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a series of patients who underwent single-level cervical dis...
متن کاملAdjacent segment disease after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion in a large series.
BACKGROUND Adjacent segment disease (ASD) development is known to occur after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). OBJECTIVE To study the relationship between index ACDF levels and the location of ASD development (above/below), as well as the effect of fusion length on ASD development. METHODS We report 888 patients who underwent ACDF for cervical spondylosis over a twenty-year p...
