Abstract
There was no significantly higher incidence rate of reop between the patients who underwent LMP and those who underwent ACDF after 1-year follow-up; however, ACDF was associated with a higher rate of 1-year complications and mortality compared with LMP. LMP might be considered as a treatment option for MCDD but could not be appropriate for patients with cervical kyphotic deformity.
