A comparison of reoperation rates after single-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) between the procedures with and without anterior plate fixation

CONCLUSION: Anterior cervical plating may have a negative impact on the adjacent segment integrity, resulting in an increased reoperation rate after a single-level ACDF at relatively shorter postoperative time points. J. Med. Invest. 70 : 334-342, August, 2023.PMID:37940516 | DOI:10.2152/jmi.70.334
