What this trial studies

This study evaluates the relationship between various evaluation parameters and the prognosis of patients undergoing cervical single open-door surgery for cervical spinal stenosis. It is a multi-center retrospective clinical study that aims to analyze complication rates and provide a theoretical basis for personalized surgical approaches. The study includes patients who have not responded to conservative treatment for at least three months and have specific MRI findings. The goal is to improve surgical outcomes through better understanding of the factors influencing prognosis.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are patients with typical symptoms of cervical spinal stenosis who have not benefited from conservative treatment and are scheduled for cervical single open-door surgery.

Not a fit: Patients with cervical spondylotic radiculopathy, instability, or those requiring revision surgery will not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved surgical outcomes and personalized treatment plans for patients with cervical spinal stenosis.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown success with similar surgical approaches, indicating potential for meaningful advancements in treatment.

* The patients underwent cervical single open-door surgery.
* Informed consent was obtained from the patient and his family, informed consent was signed, and a complete follow-up was completed after surgery

Exclusion Criteria:

* Cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.
* Cervical kyphosis or instability.
* Cervical spondylosis caused by trauma, tumor, tuberculosis and metabolic diseases.
* Revision surgery or combined anterior-posterior surgery is required.
* The patients had severe neurological diseases affecting the evaluation of postoperative results.
