Neurological Evaluation of Severe Congenital Kyphosis With Compressive Myelopathy in 39 Patients With a Minimum 1‐Year Follow‐Up

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
We suggested that the duration of symptoms and the severity of spinal cord compression were two major contributors to the neurological prognosis in patients with CK. MRI indicators of poor prognosis included the presence of T1WI hypointensity, T2WI hyperintensity, and greater MCC, MSCC, and MTAC.

Differences in the Demographics and Clinical Characteristics between the Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament and Ossification of the Ligamentum Flavum in Patients Who Underwent Thoracic Spinal Surgery for Compressive Myelopathy

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica
Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) and ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) are related diseases associated with the ossification of spinal ligaments that can occasionally lead to thoracic myelopathy.

Late‐Onset Spinal Cord Dysfunction in Rigid Posttraumatic Thoracolumbar Kyphosis: Radiographic Analysis of Neurological Compromise

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Three main causes of late‐onset spinal cord dysfunction in rigid posttraumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis: Type I. Compression at the apex (59.0%). Type II. Degenerative thoracic stenosis above the apex (25.6%). Type III. Coexistence of both (15.4%). T10/11 was the most involved site.

Spinal involvement in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome): presentation, diagnosis and management. [PDF]

, 2013
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA), also known as Morquio-Brailsford or Morquio A syndrome, is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficiency of the enzyme N-acetyl-galactosamine-6-sulphate sulphatase (GALNS). MPS IVA is multisystemic but manifests

Anterior Cervical V‐Shaped Osteotomy and Fusion (ACVF) for Retro‐Corporeal Decompression Bypassing Anterior Corpus Vertebra: A Technical Note

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Anterior cervical V‐shaped osteotomy and fusion (ACVF) is a procedure for posterior vertebral body decompression. Undamaged anterior vertebral endplate is assured for implant fixation, while adjacent intervertebral spaces were connected, proving complete decompression. Four patients who underwent ACVF had improved symptoms, an unimpaired fusion process,

Bone Cement Augmentation for Cervical Vertebrae‐Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament Complex Contributes to Anterior Controllable Antedisplacement and Fusion in Patients With Osteoporosis

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
Anterior controllable antedisplacement and fusion (ACAF) is an effective strategy in treating cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (C‐OPLL). The controllable antedisplacement of vertebrae‐OPLL complex (VOC) through screws is both the most critical and technically challenging procedure.
