Abstract

A total of 47 patients with cervical myelopathy underwent double door laminoplasty. We examined the radiological changes and their local symptoms for any potential correlationship.

Local symptoms remained in 7 patients after the operation. These local symptoms did not correlate with ligament deviation nor the CT measurements of back muscle area.
