The first comprehensive book dedicated solely to the evaluation and
treatment of cervical spine deformity! The number of cervical
fusion procedures has increased in the U.S. and globally during the
last decade, in part due to an aging population and higher
incidence of complex cervical problems. Despite advances in the
surgical treatment of cervical deformities, few resources detail
modern clinical assessment, radiographic evaluation, and surgical
approaches. Cervical Spine Deformity Surgery by world-renowned
spine surgeons Christopher Ames, K. Daniel Riew, Justin Smith, and
Kuniyoshi Abumi fills a void in the literature. It provides a
concise, state-of-the-art resource on current cervical deformity
knowledge compiled from the literature and recognized masters in
the field. The generously illustrated text begins with a background
on the marked health impact of cervical deformity. Opening chapters
provide primers on the clinical and radiographic assessment of
patients, malalignment and disability scores, and the physical
exam. Subsequent chapters detail surgical planning and approaches
for a full spectrum of cervical spine conditions, such as
semi-rigid and rigid deformities, sagittal deformities, distal
junctional kyphosis, congenital cervical deformity, and
hemivertebra. Key Features Insightful technical nuances and pearls
on managing surgical, neurological, and medical complications
associated with cervical procedures, as well as risk stratification
and patient frailty Diverse osteotomies including low grade,
uncovertebral joint (anterior view), cervical pedicle subtraction,
cervical opening wedge, upper thoracic, C1-2 joint, and cervical
pedicle screw fixation Focused discussion on continuing efforts to
create a clinically meaningful comprehensive cervical osteotomy
classification system Neurosurgical and orthopaedic residents and
practicing spine surgeons who treat patients with cervical
deformities will greatly benefit from consulting this comprehensive
and unique resource. This book includes complimentary access to a
digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.
