Union Rate on Hinge Side after Open-Door Laminoplasty Using Maxillofacial Titanium Miniplate

Advances in Orthopedics, 2013
Background. One of the important complications of open-door laminoplasty is a premature laminoplasty closure. In order to prevent premature laminoplasty closure many techniques have been described and a titanium miniplate is one of the instruments to ...

The Cross‐Sectional Areas and Anterior–Posterior Balance of the Cervical Paraspinal Muscles in Dropped Head Syndrome and Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis

JOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 1, March 2025.
Magnetic resonance images depicting dropped head syndrome. ABSTRACT Introduction Dropped head syndrome (DHS) is characterized by weakness of the neck extensor muscles. However, few studies have assessed the cross‐sectional areas (CSAs) of the cervical paraspinal muscles (CPM) and their anterior–posterior balance in DHS.

Novel Algorithm for Surgical Management of Cervical Ossification of Posterior Longitudinal Ligament: A Retrospective Cohort Study With 2‐Year Follow‐Up

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 393-400, February 2025.
The aim of this study was to elucidate a novel algorithm to guide the choice of surgical approaches for COPLL based on its location and extent. We proposed the following three main criteria for the classification: (1) the positional relationship between ossification and UP, (2) the K‐line, and (3) the ossification segment.

Improved Function After Anterior Controllable Antedisplacement and Fusion for Cervical Ossification of Posterior Longitudinal Ligament: A Long‐Term Follow‐Up

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 416-426, February 2025.
Instead of resecting the cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (C‐OPLL), anterior controllable antedisplacement and fusion (ACAF) achieves ventral decompression by directly moving the vertebrae with OPLL anteriorly, away from the spinal cord.
