The Role of C2-C7 Angle in the Development of Dysphagia After Anterior and Posterior Cervical Spine Surgery.
This is a retrospective clinical study. ⋯ Postoperative dysphagia is common after cervical surgery. The dC2-C7 angle may play an important role in the development of dysphagia in both anterior and PC spine surgery. Overenlargement of cervical lordosis should be avoided to reduce the development of postoperative dysphagia.
