Factors predicting loss of cervical lordosis following cervical laminoplasty: A critical review
Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2020 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
