OBJECTIVE: Factors impacting surgical options and outcomes in patients with cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) were explored.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 127 eligible cervical OPLL patients (61 males, 66 females) aged 41-70 years (mean 55.2 years) selected from 152 total OPLL patients treated from 2002 to 2006, with 5-10-year (mean 6.8 years) follow-up. Patients underwent anterior subtotal corpectomy with ossification ligament resection (anterior surgery, n = 68) or posterior cervical double-door laminoplasty (posterior surgery, n = 59). Radiographic assessments of cervical curvature, T2-weighted MRI (MRIT2) signal, and OPLL occupying ratio were correlated with surgical strategy before surgery and at 1, 5 weeks, and 5 years.
RESULTS: Lordosis increased following anterior surgery, though kyphosis improved by 10.3 %. The canal stenosis occupying ratio was >50 %, and short-term improvement following anterior surgery was significantly higher than posterior surgery (P > 0.0001). Superior neurological function was observed in patients with unchanged versus high spinal MRIT2 signals (P = 0.0434). No significant differences were observed in short-term outcomes between anterior and posterior surgeries in high spinal MRIT2 signal patients, but anterior surgery produced significantly better long-term outcomes at 1 week (P = 0.7564) and 1 year (P = 0.0071). Complications occurred in five anterior and three posterior surgeries.
CONCLUSION: Preoperative assessment of cervical curvature, MRIT2 signal, and occupying ratio can be used to guide clinical surgical approach selection to potentially produce better long-term outcomes in patients with OPLL.
