Cervical foraminal stenosis as a risk factor for cervical kyphosis following cervical laminoplasty

Spine Journal, 2022
Cervical laminoplasty (CLP) is an effective spinal cord decompression method for patients with cervical myelopathy. However, cervical kyphosis after CLP may cause insufficient decompression of the spinal cord. Thus, prevention of cervical kyphosis after CLP and identification of its risk factors are essential.This study aimed to investigate the ...
