BACKGROUND: Surgeons can preoperatively assess bone quality using dual-energy X-ray
absorptiometry or computed tomography; however, this is not feasible for all patients …

Purpose Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is a common procedure for the
treatment of cervical degenerative diseases. However, cage subsidence remains a frequent …

OBJECTIVE A consequence of anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is graft
subsidence, potentially leading to kyphosis, nonunion, foraminal stenosis, and recurrent …

Background: For surgical management of degenerative cervical spine disease with
myeloradiculopathy, stand-alone cages are frequently used in 1-and 2-level anterior cervical …

Objective Preoperative parameters including the T1 slope (T1S) and C2–C7 sagittal vertical
axis (SVA) have been recognized as predictors of kyphosis after laminoplasty, which is …

Study Design: This study was a retrospective review. Objective: The purpose of this study
was to investigate the correlation analysis between Hounsfield units (HU) and dual x-ray …

Background The placement of intervertebral cages in anterior cervical discectomy (ACDF)
supposedly maintains foraminal height. The most commonly reported cage-related …

Purpose Various factors have been examined in relation to cage subsidence risk, including
cage material, cage geometry, bone mineral density, device type, surgical level, bone graft …

Study design This study was a retrospective review. Objective To study the predictive effect
of Hounsfield units (HU) value in the cervical vertebral body derived from computed …

Study Design. Retrospective cohort study. Objective. To investigate and analyze the
