[Results of extensive cervical laminectomy].
39 patients were studied for late effects of cervical laminectomy. With a mean follow-up of 51 months and mean extent of laminectomy of 4.15 levels, analysis of pre- and postoperative radiographs showed changes in cervical spine curvature type in 72% and in 44% extreme spinal deformity. In addition, postoperative effects on pain and neurological symptoms are evaluated. Close follow-up during rehabilitation in essential for the prevention of clinical deterioration after laminectomy.
