TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a method to measure the effectiveness of orthopaedic surgery at the University of Tokyo and the National Hospital Organization of Japan (NHO) in terms of the number of patients who were admitted to the hospital.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The present study measured the mechanical properties of the white and gray matter of bovine spinal cords and applied the data to computer simulations using the finite element method, and confirmed that simulations agreed with actual magnetic resonance imaging findings of the spinal cord under compression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cervical laminoplasty (Hattori’s method)procedure and follow-up results
TL;DR: The Z-shaped laminoplasty developed by Hattori in 1971 is described, and a clinical follow-up of the authors' experience with 130 patients is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of the spinal cord injury and the cervical spondylotic myelopathy: new approach based on the mechanical features of the spinal cord white and gray matter.
TL;DR: Differences in mechanical properties between the white and gray matter constitute different mechanisms contributing to the development of tissue damage and clinical symptoms.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: T-OPLL at the nonkyphotic upper thoracic spine can be treated by laminoplasty that is relatively a safe surgical procedure for neural elements and its use should be considered with posterior decompression.
