Factors Influencing Surgical Decision-Making in the Posterior Laminectomy With Fixation for Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy (POLYFIX-DCM) Trial: Survey Study

Factors Influencing Surgical Decision-Making in the Posterior Laminectomy With Fixation for Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy (POLYFIX-DCM) Trial: Survey Study

Overall, surgical decompression is recognized to be efficacious; however, the individual gains are highly variable [15-17]. Most patients will make a modest but incomplete recovery [18]. Some will achieve marked recovery, but some will continue to deteriorate. Establishing whether this is determined by surgical technique has been a popular focus of DCM research and remains a topic of debate [19].
