Cervical Spine Deformity Correction Techniques

Cervical kyphotic deformity can be a debilitating condition with symptoms ranging from mechanical neck pain, radiculopathy, and myelopathy to impaired swallowing and horizontal gaze. Surgical correction of cervical kyphosis has the potential to halt progression of neurological and clinical deterioration and even restore function. There are various operative approaches and deformity correction techniques. Choosing the optimal strategy is predicated on a fundamental understanding of spine biomechanics. Preoperative characterization of cervical malalignment, assessment of deformity rigidity, and defining postoperative clinical and radiographic objectives are paramount to formulating a surgical plan that balances clinical benefit with morbidity. This review of cervical deformity treatment provides an overview of the biomechanics of cervical kyphosis, radiographic classification, algorithm-based management, surgical techniques, and current surgical outcome studies.

Starting in the 1960s, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) became more commonly diagnosed in Japan. The disease is characterized by a gradual increase in calcification of the posterior longitudinal ligament with the eventual sequelae of cervical canal stenosis and myelopathy. Surgical interventions to relieve stenosis and neurologic symptoms are performed to decompress the cervical canal. Studies demonstrate continued ossification of the OPLL in both nonsurgical and surgically treated patients. In this review, the authors evaluate the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and literature regarding disease progression in OPLL after cervical fusion.
