Abstract

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Anterior cervical discectomy combined with cage and anterior locking titanium plate is widely used for the treatment of various kinds of cervical spondylosis. Microsurgical technique has increasingly become a standard technique.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical effects of anterior cervical microsurgical discectomy combined with cage and anterior locking titanium plate for cervical spondylosis.

METHODS: Clinical data of 108 patients treated with anterior cervical microsurgical discectomy combined with cage and anterior locking titanium plate were retrospectively analyzed. According to the clinical outcome before and after surgery, including the scores of Japanese Orthopedic Association, visual analogue scale of neck and upper extremities, neck disability index, imaging manifestations (disc space height and Cobb angle) and other indexes, the surgical results were evaluated.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with pre-operation, the postoperative Japanese Orthopedic Association score, visual analogue scale score of neck and upper extremities, neck disability index score, disc space height and Cobb angle were markedly improved, with a significant difference (P < 0.05). The improvement-rate of the spinal function included 102 excellent cases and 6 good cases. Complete fusion of bone graft observed in all cases. It suggested that anterior cervical microsurgical discectomy combined with cage and anterior locking titanium plate has significant effect on various types of cervical spondylosis.
