Biomechanical Effects of Different Approaches and Titanium Mesh in Combined Anterior Cervical Corpectomy Decompression and Fusion: A Finite Element Study

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Equivalent stress cloud maps of cervical spine flexion movement after four anterior approach methods. (a) VBSP‐S method. (b) AVBSP‐C method. (c) APSP‐S method. (d) APSP‐C method. ACCF biomechanics depend on fixation (AVBSP/APSP) and mesh shape (linear/curved). Adjacent disc sensitivity varies. Fixation choice affects titanium mesh stress.

Utilization of CT scanning associated with complex spine surgery. [PDF]

, 2017
BackgroundDue to the risk associated with exposure to ionizing radiation, there is an urgent need to identify areas of CT scanning overutilization. While increased use of diagnostic spinal imaging has been documented, no previous research has estimated ...

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with and without plating: A comparison of radiological and clinical outcomes.

Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2023
Treatment for degenerative disc disease of the cervical spine primarily aims to decompress neural structures and preserve the former height of the disc space and foramina. Popular methods include anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) using cages

Esophageal Perforation Following C4–C6 Anterior Cervical Corpectomy With Anterior Plate Fixation: A Rare but Life‐Threatening Complication Requiring Surgical Repair

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF) with anterior plate fixation is a common procedure for cervical spine trauma. Although generally safe, it carries a risk of esophageal perforation—a rare but potentially fatal complication.

Design of the PROCON trial: a prospective, randomized multi – center study comparing cervical anterior discectomy without fusion, with fusion or with arthroplasty

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2006
Background PROCON was designed to assess the clinical outcome, development of adjacent disc disease and costs of cervical anterior discectomy without fusion, with fusion using a stand alone cage and implantation of a Bryan's disc prosthesis.

Quantitative MRI Signal Changes of the Spinal Cord as Predictors of Suboptimal Surgical Outcomes in Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 84-92, January 2026.
Ninety‐four patients diagnosed with increased signal intensity (ISI) on T2‐weighted MRI and treated with anterior cervical decompression for DCM between January 2021 and June 2023 were reviewed, Higher signal change ratio (SCR), the presence of snake‐eye appearance (SEA), and long symptoms predict poor DCM outcomes, highlighting the need for early ...
