Cervical laminoplasty for the treatment of ossification of the
posterior longitudinal ligament was developed and refined in Japan
during the 1970s. Since that time, various cervical laminoplasty
techniques have been further analyzed and modified, and have proven
to be clinically successful. Until now cervical laminoplasty has
been practiced primarily in Japan, and surgeons outside Japan had
only limited access to the detailed English literature needed to
make full use of the procedures. This book fills that gap in
English information and provides a detailed, up-to-date guide to
performing safe and effective cervical laminoplasty. Drawing on the
latest knowledge from Japan, the book covers the history of
cervical laminoplasty, surgical anatomy, basic procedures, modified
procedures, possible complications, and perspectives on the future
of expansive laminoplasty. This volume by leaders in the field is
an excellent guide for all surgeons interested in laminoplasty.
