lateral disc protrusion

due to osteophyte formation

Bailey and Badgley technique involves making a rectangular trough in the adjacent bodies for the graft.

Cadaveric bone grafts and methyl methacrylate are used by some for obvious reasons, but autografts have been found superior .

Some advocate suturing the prevertebral fascia over the graft to prevent graft migration.

Some advocate anterior instrumentation in addition to bone grafting, especially in cases where trauma is a factor. Anterior self locking plate fixation is common. Titanium cage filled with cancellous bone fixation is specially useful (with or without plates) in multilevel corpectomy.

Post operatively, a hard cervical collar is advised for six weeks.

Posterior approach may be indicated in canal stenosis, either congenital or degenerative with hard disc protrusions or hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum or multi segmental OPLL.

C3 to C7 posterior laminectomy is recommended despite the level of involvement and gives adequate decompression. Additional foraminotomy (removal of the posterior wall of the intervertebral foramen) is helpful in myeloradiculopathy.

Occasionally a soft ** lateral disc protrusion** can be removed through hemi or a partial laminectomy or through an interpedicular approach.

bone spur

Der Wirbel reagiert auf erhöhten Druck mit der Bildung von knöchernen "Anbauten", durch die die Auflagefläche vergrößert wird. Das sieht auf dem Röntgen- oder MRT-Bild so aus, dass die Wirbelkanten nach außen verzogen sind.
Der Vorgang wird z.B. als 'vertebral spurring' bezeichnet, die "Anbauten" heißen osteo(chondro)phytes oder (bone) spurs.
