Predicting Neck Dysfunction After Open-Door Cervical Laminoplasty — A Prospective Cohort Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Study
Central canal stenosis, preoperative neck pain and a K-line during flexion were found to be predictive of postoperative neck pain and cervical spine function after laminoplasty. To achieve better surgical outcomes for neck function, the authors suggest the utilization of these determinants as a guiding framework for the selection of surgical approaches for DCM.
