Cervical laminoplasty is a surgical technique that removes pressure from the spinal cord in the neck. Pressure on the spinal cord can be due to various causes, including degenerative changes, arthritis, bone spurs, disk herniations, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, tumors, or fractures. Laminoplasty may be an excellent option to remove the pressure, allow the spinal cord to heal, and reverse the symptoms. The aims of a laminoplasty are to expand the spinal canal while preserving the protective function and mobility of the spine.Quick Tips
