Abstract

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has become the gold standard for the treatment of cervical radiculopathy or myelopathy resulting from anterior compression. While adjacent segment disease (ASD) is a potential complication of ACDF, clinical results following surgery to address ASD have generally been favorable. While it is suspected that depression predicts poor surgical outcomes, no study to date has investigated patient factors that may help to predict patient-reported outcomes following cervical surgery for ASD.
