Abstract

How to find the most effective and scientific way to prevent and treat spine diseases is a common concern of medical workers and sports work. Because Tai Chi has a certain role in the field of spine health care and spine medical treatment, the research content of this paper is the study of microscopically assisted decompression in the treatment of cervical spondylotic myelopathy. In this paper, 54 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy were treated with microscopically assisted fine decompression. The results showed that the physiological curvature of cervical vertebrae and the fusion height after operation were significantly recovered compared with that before operation. The fusion rate was 100% at the last follow-up. The stability of cervical vertebrae was good. There was no loss of the intervertebral height. There was no complications such as plate loosening or screw breaking, The curative effect was satisfactory. Microscopical technique has achieved good clinical effect in cervical operation.
