DOI: 10.1007/s00586-019-06060-8
Abstract: Distal-type cervical spondylotic amyotrophy (CSA) is a rare form of cervical spondylosis that causes muscle weakness of upper extremities. The pathophysiology and appropriate surgical method for the treatment of CSA are still controversial. We investigated… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-020-04453-z
Abstract: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a degenerative process of the cervical spine requiring surgical decompression to prevent neurological deterioration. While both anterior and posterior approaches yield satisfactory results, posterior decompression is preferred in cases of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10072-020-04691-0
Abstract: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is caused by cervical spine degeneration and surgery may be beneficial, but selection for surgery might be challenging. We performed a multimodal analysis to assess predicting factors that may be useful… read more here.
