Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy: When and Why the Cervical Corpectomy?

2020

Background: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a degenerative disease that represents the most common spinal cord disorder in adults. The best treatment option has remained controversial. We performed a prospective study to evaluate the clinical, radiographic, and neurophysiologic outcomes for anterior cervical corpectomy in the treatment of CSM. Methods: From January 2011 to January 2017, 60 patients with CSM were prospectively enrolled in the present study. The patients were divided according to the modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association scale (mJOA) score into 2 groups: group A, patients with mild to moderate CSM (mJOA score ≥13); and group B, patients with severe myelopathy (mJ…

Cervical spondylotic myelopathy: Changes of fractional anisotropy in the spinal cord and magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the primary motor cortex …

2019

Abstract Objective To determine the changes in fractional anisotropy (FA) at the proximal spinal cord and in magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the precentral gyrus in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) with respect to clinical symptoms and their duration. Material and Methods 20 patients with CSM (7 female; mean age 64.6 ± 10.5 years) and 18 age/sex matched healthy controls (9 female; mean age 63.5 ± 6.6 years) were prospectively included. Clinical data (modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association Score (mJOA) and Neck Disability Index (NDI)) and 3T MR measurements including DTI at the spinal cord (level C2/3) with FA and MRS of the left and right precentral gyrus were…

Association of long-term outcome of long cervical fusion with sagittal balance: the significance of T1 slope minus cervical lordosis

2022

Introduction. Retrospective study to assess correlation between the sagittal alignment of the cervical spine and the long-term outcomes of long cervical fusion due to cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM), with the emphasis on T1 slope minus cervical lordosis (T1S-CL).Summary of background data. Growing evidence shows that the sagittal profile can play a major role in the outcomes of treatment, but the role of its correction is yet to be established. Material and methods. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 54 patients treated for CSM from 2006 to 2012. The neck pain-related disability was measured using NDI, the myelopathy was measured with the mJOA and Nurick scales. Six years after …
