Abstract:
Objective To discuss the risk factors of C5 never palsy incidence after cervical open-door laminoplasty. Methods This study involved 254 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy, who underwent expansive open-door lam?inoplasty in our hospital between January 2009 and December 2012. Patients were divided into two groups according to the incidence of C5 palsy after operation. Group A included 20 patients with C5 palsy and group B included 234 cases without C5 palsy. The risk factors for postoperative C5 palsy were compared between two groups. The factors may affect the inci?dence of C5 palsy were analyze. Results All cases received follow-up with an average follow-up time (24.9±2.6) months. Values of cervical curvature index (CCI), lamina open angles and spinal cord shift were significantly greater in group A than those of group B (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in preoperative intramedullary high signal, ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament and intervertebral foramen stenosis between two groups (P>0.05). Results of Logistic regres?sion analysis of multiple factors showed that lamina open angles, the pathogenic factors of C5 palsy included the spinal cord shift and postoperative CCI [OR(95%CI):2.035(1.684-2.359), 3.542 (2.465-9.254) and 9.126(4.425-17.273). Conclusion The angle of open door too large, CCI and spinal cord shift are risk factors for postoperative C5 palsy.
