  • Title: Indications and results of surgical treatment of cervical disc disease by anterior and posterior approach.
    Author: Jacchia GE, Innocenti M, Pavolini B, Ciampalini L.
    Journal: Chir Organi Mov; 1992; 77(1):111-5. PubMed ID: 1587153.
    Abstract:
    The authors report their experience with indications (130 cases) for the treatment of cervical disc disorders, which has recently witnessed an increase in cervicobrachial pain in disc-spinal cord conflict syndromes. After a first period during which the use of hemilanimoarthrectomy prevailed, there has been an evident increase in the number of cases treated by discectomy by Cloward fusion and an anterior approach. Thus, the results obtained in local symptoms have improved; more precisely, the problem of neck pain and cervical mobility have been resolved, while positive results in peripheral symptoms have remained the same.
