- W3015300211 abstract "Background Context Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) procedures is thought to lead to accelerated degeneration of the adjacent cervical discs and in some cases can be symptomatic (adjacent segment disease, or ASD). The occurrence of ASD is of particular interest when treating young individuals, as the cumulative disease burden may become increasingly significant during their expectedly long lifetime. However, the overall impact of a surgical intervention on the lifetime prognosis of ASD remains unclear. Purpose Our goal was to study the long-term outcomes of ACDF surgery among those members of the young adult population who have been operated on between the ages of 18 and 40. Study Design Retrospective study. Patient Sample All patients between 18 and 40 years of age at the time of surgery who underwent ACDF due to degenerative cervical disorders at Helsinki University Hospital between the years of 1990 and 2005 (476 patients). Outcome Measures Cervical reoperation rate, satisfaction with the surgery, employment status, Neck Disability Index (NDI). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of all patients between 18 and 40 years of age at the time of surgery who underwent ACDF due to degenerative cervical disorders at Helsinki University Hospital between the years of 1990 and 2005. We sent questionnaires to all available patients at the end of the follow-up (median 17.5 years) to assess their current neck symptoms, general situations, and levels of satisfaction with the surgery. Furthermore, we compared the results for different types of ACDF surgeries (ie, discectomy only vs. synthetic cage or bone autograft implantation for fusion) in propensity-score-matched groups. Results Of the 476 patients who were included in the study, surgery was performed in 72% of the cases due to intervertebral disc herniation and in 28% due to spondylotic changes. The total reoperation rate during the entire follow-up (median 17.5 years) was 24%, and 19.5% if early reoperations (<28 days from index surgery) were excluded. At 10 years postsurgery, the total reoperation rate was 16.8% and 12.8% with early reoperations excluded. The probability of surgery for adjacent level disease was 10.3% at 10 years and 16.8% for the duration of the entire follow-up, with the annual incidence rate of 1.1% for those with ASD requiring surgery. Statistically significant risk factors leading to the need for further cervical surgery included central spinal cord compression and smoking at the time of the index operation. After propensity score matching, there was no significant difference found between the outcomes of different types of surgery. A total of 443 patients were still able to be contacted 12–28 years after the surgery. Of the 281 patients responding to the questionnaires, 92% were still satisfied with the results. With respect to employment, 67% of patients were working, 7% were unemployed, and 7% were on disability due to cervical problems. The median NDI score was 12%, with 56% of patients having an NDI score lower than 15%; it has been suggested that this latter NDI score serves as a cut-off value for significant neck morbidity. The NDI scores were significantly higher among female patients, patients with spondylosis, and patients having undergone further cervical surgeries during the follow-up. Conclusions Long-term satisfaction with the surgery was very high, and the employment rate among patients resembled that of the general population in Finland. Thus, the long-term prognosis after having ACDF surgery at a younger age seems to be good, even though nearly half of the patients experienced some persistent neck symptoms later in life." @default.
