Meanings of anterior decompression in anglès

Evidence of instability was noted in four patients, who were operated with anterior decompression fusion.

Early anterior decompression and fusion was an important approach for cervical disc and longitudinal ligament injury.

Neck chronic pain was found in two patients, anterior decompression and fusion was done in one with cervical spinal cord compression.

Method: Forty consecutive patients with spine fractures underwent surgery for anterior decompression, reduction of kyphotic deformity, and stabilization by grafting and instrumentation.

Background: Many surgical methods are available for repairing thoracolumbar fractures including short-segment internal fixation with posterior pedicle screws and anterior decompression and reduction.

Between 1981 and 1990, twenty-two patients with incomplete neurologic deficits after thoracolumbar junction fractures were treated by anterior decompression and stabilization.

Anterior decompression of the lesion is difficult because of the local anatomy.

Anterior decompression under the microscope may provide an alternative surgical option for partial patients with the pincer mechanism in cervical spondylotic myelopathy.

Conclusion: Anterior decompression-graft-internal fixation is the preferred consideration to treat hyperextension injury of cervical spine, and posterior one is only the secondary choice.
