Effectiveness of titanium plate usage in laminoplasty
Background: Laminoplasty is an established technique for the treatment of cervical stenosis. However, the usage of plates to maintain patency of the laminoplasty door has not been well reported.

Cervical Laminoplasty for Multilevel Cervical Myelopathy [PDF]
Cervical spondylotic myelopathy can result from degenerative cervical spondylosis, herniated disk material, osteophytes, redundant ligamentum flavum, or ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament. Surgical intervention for multi-level myelopathy

Modified Laminoplasty for Degenerative Cervical Spondylosis: The Technique of Floating Laminoplasty
Background: Laminoplasty is an established alternative to laminectomy for posterior cervical decompression in spondylotic myelopathy. However, standard laminoplasty requires internal fixation, which is often not obtainable in developing countries.

Value of Laminoplasty in Children with Spinal Tumors
Background Data: Post-laminectomy deformities after surgery for the spinal tumors in children are common and affect the functional outcome. Laminoplasty may decrease the incidence of postoperative progressive spinal deformity requiring subsequent fusion.

Biomechanical Analysis of Posterior Ligaments of Cervical Spine and Laminoplasty
Cervical laminoplasty is a valuable procedure for myelopathy but it is associated with complications such as increased kyphosis. The effect of ligament damage during cervical laminoplasty on biomechanics is not well understood.

Results of cervical recapping laminoplasty: gross anatomical changes, biomechanical evaluation at different time points and degrees of level involvement. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Recapping laminoplasty has become the frequently-used approach to the spinal canal when bone decompression of the vertebral canal is not the goal. However, what changes will occur after surgery, and whether recapping laminoplasty can actually

Factors predicting loss of cervical lordosis following cervical laminoplasty: A critical review
Background: Laminoplasty is a method of posterior cervical decompression which indirectly decompresses the spinal column. Unfortunately, many patients undergoing laminoplasty develops postoperative loss of cervical lordosis (LCL) or kyphotic alignment of
