Cervical spine stenosis.
Increased knowledge of the anatomy, physiology and biomechanics of the cervical spine and the enclosed neural and vascular elements is leading to a better understanding of the importance of cervical spine stenosis, as certain clinical syndromes may ensue and may respond well to operative decompression. The present study was designed to investigate the incidence of cervical spine stenosis in patients who have required surgical treatment for cervical spondylosis, and to evaluate the clinical results.
