Lower C2 slope and milder uncovertebral joint degeneration are risk factors for pseudarthrosis after single-level anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion (ACCF): retrospective study of 102 patients with minimum 2-year follow-up
Lower preoperative C2 slope, greater segment range of motion, and milder uncovertebral joint degeneration grades may be risk factors for pseudarthrosis following anterior cervical corpectomy and fusion. These characteristics should be further considered in surgical planning to identify high-risk patients.
