Improvement of sagittal parameters in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy is associated with outcome after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion
Abstract:Purpose: After ACDF, cervical lordosis loss, high C2-7 SVA and postoperative T1S will worsen the surgical prognosis. Therefore, this study evaluated the changes of cervical parameters after surgery and correlation with surgical prognosis. Methods: This study enrolled 212 cervical compressive myelopathy patients who underwent ACDF. We collect gender, age, BMI, NDI scores and cervical parameters. And then, we compare the changes of parameters after surgery, and explore the correlation between parameters and NDI … Show more
