Patient Experience: Recovery After Cervical Laminoplasty

After suffering for years with slowly progressive numbness, worsening balance and loss of dexterity caused by a degenerative condition known as cervical myelopathy, this patient experienced a rapid and frightening decline in her neurological symptoms. When cervical myelopathy gets acutely worse, it can feel like you are losing control of your body and this patient was smart enough to seek out care immediately. She was treated with a surgical procedure called a cervical laminoplasty, that is used to take pressure off of the spinal cord but still allow you to move your neck (unlike a fusion). In this video we learn about her recovery. Dr. Katsuura, a board certified spine surgeon practicing in Main, Novato, Sonoma, Mendocino and San Francisco treats a wide range of back and neck conditions in his spinal clinic. He is an expert in minimally invasive, reconstructive and motion preserving procedures.
