Long Term Effect on Adjacent Segment Motion after Posterior Cervical Foraminotomy
OBJECTIVE Posterior cervical foraminotomy (PCF) is a motion-preserving surgical technique. The objective was to determine whether PCF alter cervical motion as a long-term influence. METHODS Thirty one patients who followed up more than 36 months after PCF for cervical radiculopathy from January 2004 to September 2008 were enrolled in this study. The range of motion (ROM) of whole cervical spi...
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 کاملAdjacent 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 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 کاملLong-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...
