Long-Term Clinical and Radiologic Outcomes of Minimally Invasive Posterior Cervical Foraminotomy
OBJECTIVE To report long-term clinical and radiological outcomes of minimally invasive posterior cervical foraminotomy (MI-PCF) performed in patients with unilateral single-level cervical radiculopathy. METHODS Of forty-six patients who underwent MI-PCF for unilateral single-level radiculopathy between 2005 and 2013, 33 patients were included in the study, with a mean follow-up of 32.7 months...
متن کاملLong-Term Outcome of Posterior Cervical Inclinatory Foraminotomy
OBJECTIVE A modified surgical technique of posterior cervical foramintomy called posterior cervical inclinatory foraminotomy (PCIF) was introduced in previous preliminary article. PCIF allows better preservation of facet joint and capsule than conventional techniques. The authors conducted a study to investigate long-term outcomes of PCIF. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed demographic, radi...
متن کاملPreservation of Motion at the Surgical Level after Minimally Invasive Posterior Cervical Foraminotomy
OBJECTIVE Although minimally invasive posterior cervical foraminotomy (MI-PCF) is an established approach for motion preservation, the outcomes are variable among patients. The objective of this study was to identify significant factors that influence motion preservation after MI-PCF. METHODS Forty-eight patients who had undergone MI-PCF between 2004 and 2012 on a total of 70 levels were stud...
متن کاملMinimally invasive cervical spine foraminotomy and lateral mass screw placement.
STUDY DESIGN This technique article describes accomplishing multilevel posterior cervical decompression and lateral mass screw placement through a tubular retraction system. OBJECTIVE Multilevel foraminotomy and instrumented fusion using lateral mass screw fixation can be achieved through a minimally invasive technique using specialized retractors and intraoperative fluoroscopic imaging. SU...
متن کاملMinimally invasive fully endoscopic two-level posterior cervical foraminotomy: technical note.
Posterior cervical foraminotomy is an effective surgical treatment method for relieving radicular symptoms that result from cervical nerve root compression. Minimally invasive techniques and tubular retractor systems are available to minimize tissue retraction, but minimally invasive approaches can carry with them the surgical challenge of trying to pass instruments through a long narrow retrac...
