This study reports two cases of upper cervical myelopathy with athetoid cerebral palsy (ACP) treated with posterior arch resection. Both patients exhibited good long-term outcomes with no recurrence at five or 10 years. Decompression surgery can be effective for ACP patients with upper cervical spine lesions.
本研究报告了两例采用后弓切除术治疗的伴有手足徐动型脑瘫(ACP)的上颈段脊髓病患者。两名患者均取得了良好的长期疗效,在5年或10年时均无复发。减压手术对于患有上颈椎病变的ACP患者可能有效。
