Advanced Surgical Approaches to Degenerative Cervical Spine Disorders
Abstract
Degenerative diseases of the cervical spine are increasingly prevalent and present complex challenges for treatment. This study analyzes clinical outcomes of 76 patients who underwent various surgical interventions, including anterior discectomy, spondylodesis, laminoplasty, and decompressive laminectomy. The findings suggest that timely surgical treatment significantly reduces pain, improves neurological function, and enhances quality of life. Two-stage surgeries proved most effective for cases involving severe myelopathy and spinal stenosis.
