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 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 کاملAnterior cervical diskectomy and fusion for adjacent segment disease.
Between January 1996 and December 2005, a total of 1241 patients underwent anterior cervical decompression and fusion for cervical degenerative diseases in the authors' institution. Sixty-three (5.1%) patients underwent revision anterior cervical diskectomy and fusion for adjacent segment disease between October 2003 and August 2010. This series included 35 men and 28 women with a mean±SD age o...

Cervical anterior foraminotomy (AF) is an anterior surgical technique for the cervical spine aimed to decompress intervertebral foramen and lateral side of the spinal canal. This technique aims to remove the offending lesion, either a disc fragment or osteophyte compressing the neural structures, via a bony window at the uncovertebral area; while preserving the structure and functions of the in...
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...
