Abstract
This study showed that our algorithmic surgical strategy for CDK is acceptable because we obtained good outcomes, and no catastrophic complications occurred. Although we did not intend to obtain excessive postoperative lordosis, we still had several incidence of C5 nerve palsy. We have to be aware of this incidence in PAP, which required a massive range of realignment. The incidence occurred even after we performed prophylactic foraminotomy, however, this procedure may lessen the severity of C5 palsy because those were all transient.
