| Popis: | Favorable bone fusion and clinical results have been reported for anterior cervical fusion (ACF) using titanium interbody cage (TIC). This method might induce postoperative subsidence and local kyphosis, but the relationship between radiological changes and preoperative local alignment is not known. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the impact of preoperative local alignment on the clinical and radiological outcomes of ACF using TIC. The study enrolled 36 patients (mean age 49.8 years) who underwent single-level ACF using TIC for cervical degenerative diseases. Patients were divided into 2 groups by preoperative segmental lordotic angle at the operative level: group L, ≥0° (n = 16); group K |
