Popis: We aimed to investigate the clinical performance of the constructs of double-door cervical laminoplasty with suture anchors by examining bony fusion at the hinges and lamina closure. We retrospectively analysed computed tomography (CT) scans obtained preoperatively, immediately after the operation, and at follow-up of patients who underwent cervical laminoplasty using suture anchors. Hinge fracture, bony healing at the hinges, suture anchor failure, and the lamina angle (LA) were evaluated using CT. Lamina closure was defined as an LA
