Servikal Spondilotik Myelopati
Özet
82 yaşındaki bir kadın hasta, düşme sonrası gelişen ciddi kuvvet kaybı ve çok seviyeli servikal stenoz ile myelopati nedeniyle tedavi edilmiştir. Tedavide nöral dekompresyonu sağlamak ve omurgayı stabilize etmek amacıyla hem posterior laminektomi ve vidalama hem de anterior korpektomi ve plak uygulaması içeren kombine bir cerrahi yaklaşım tercih edilmiştir. Bu operasyon sonucunda hastanın nörolojik durumu iyileşmiş, sagital denge sağlanmış ve hasta bir ay süren fizik tedavi sonrasında yardımsız yürümeye başlamıştır.
An 82-year-old female patient was treated for severe limb weakness and multi-level cervical stenosis with myelopathy following a fall. The treatment involved a combined surgical approach, including posterior laminectomy with stabilization and anterior corpectomy with plating, to achieve neural decompression and spinal stability. Following the procedure, the patient's neurological status improved, sagittal balance was restored, and she regained the ability to walk independently after one month of physical therapy.
