Abstrakt: | Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: The aim was to compare the outcomes of patients with incompletely corrected cervical deformity against those without deformity following short-segment anterior cervical decompression and fusion for clinically significant radiculopathy or myelopathy. Summary of Background Data: Cervical deformity has increasingly been recognized as a driver of disability and has been linked to worse patient-reported outcomes measures (PROMs) after surgery. Methods: Patients 18 years or above who underwent 1-3 level anterior cervical decompression and fusion to address radiculopathy and/or myelopathy at a single institution between 2014 and 2018 with at least 1 year of PROMs were reviewed. Patients were categorized based on cervical deformity into 2 groups: sagittal vertebral axis (cSVA) ≥40 mm as the deformity group, and cSVA <40 mm as the nondeformity group. Patient demographics, surgical parameters, preoperative and postoperative radiographs, and minimum 1-year PROMs were compared. Results: Of the 230 patients, 191 (83%) were in the nondeformity group and 39 (17%) in the deformity group. Patients with deformity were more likely to be male (69.2% vs. 40.3%, P<0.001) and have a greater body mass index (32.8 vs. 29.7, P=0.028). The deformity group had significantly greater postoperative cSVA (44.2 vs. 25.1 mm, P<0.001) but also had significantly greater ∆cSVA (-4.87 vs. 0.25 mm, P=0.007) than the nondeformity group. Both groups had significant improvements in visual analog scale arm, visual analog scale neck, Short-Form 12 Physical Component Score, and neck disability index (NDI) (P<0.001). However, the deformity group experienced significantly greater ∆NDI and ∆mental component score (MCS)-12 scores (-19.45 vs. -11.11, P=0.027 and 7.68 vs. 1.32, P=0.009). Conclusions: Patients with preoperative cervical sagittal deformity experienced relatively greater improvements in NDI and MCS-12 scores than those without preoperative deformity. These results suggest that complete correction of sagittal alignment is not required for patients to achieve significant clinical improvement. Level of Evidence: III.
