Impact of wedge-shaped resection of the posterior bony arch on postoperative outcomes after open door laminoplasty in the cervical spine: a 2-year follow-up study

These results indicate that posterior bony impingement can be a factor in ROM restriction after cODLP surgery and that wedge-shaped resection during ODLP can be a reliable option for preserving cervical ROM and improving postoperative clinical and radiological outcomes.
