        Facet Articular Irregularity Is the Most Relevant Risk Factor for Rapidly Progressive Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy

        Yasuhiro Takeshima,Ai Okamoto,Shohei Yokoyama,Fumihiko Nishimura,Ichiro Nakagawa,Young-Soo Park,Hiroyuki Nakase 대한척추신경외과학회 2023 Neurospine Vol.20 No.1

        Objective: Facet articular irregularity is associated with rapidly progressive degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). However, its significance compared with other known risk factors remains unknown. Therefore, this retrospective study aimed to clarify the potential impact of facet articular irregularity as a risk factor for rapid DCM progression. Methods: This study included 141 consecutive patients with DCM who underwent surgical treatment at our institution. Clinical variables and radiological findings related to DCM progression were collected. Imaging findings were analyzed at the segmental level of myelopathy in each case. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the presence or absence of rapid DCM progression, and independent risk factors were determined using logistic regression analyses. Results: Overall, 131 patients with a mean age of 63.9 ± 12.6 years were analyzed; 27 patients (20.6%) were classified into the rapid DCM progression group. The mean age was significantly higher in the rapid progression group than in the slow progression group (72.4 ± 9.6 vs. 61.7 ± 12.4, p < 0.001). According to univariate analysis, facet articular irregularity, dynamic segmental translation (≥ 1.6 mm), upper cervical spine involvement above C4–5, history of cerebrovascular events, preceding minor trauma, local lordotic angle (≥ 4.5°), diabetes, hypertension, ligamentum flavum hypertrophy, and age were independent risk factors. Additionally, multivariate analysis showed that facet articular irregularity was the highest risk factor for rapid DCM progression (p = 0.001). Conclusion: Facet articular irregularity is the most clinically significant finding among the known risk factors in patients with rapid DCM progression.

        Prevalence and Clinical Impact of Cervical Facet Joint Degeneration on Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy: A Novel Computed Tomography Classification Study

        Ai Okamoto,Yasuhiro Takeshima,Shohei Yokoyama,Fumihiko Nishimura,Ichiro Nakagawa,Young-Soo Park,Hiroyuki Nakase 대한척추신경외과학회 2022 Neurospine Vol.19 No.2

        Objective: To evaluate cervical facet joint degeneration using a newly developed classification, investigate its prevalence and relationship with cervical degenerative spondylolisthesis, and clarify its clinical significance in patients with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM). Methods: This study included 145 consecutive patients with DCM who underwent surgical treatment. Clinical variables and radiological findings were analyzed. A new 6-grade computed tomography (CT) classification for cervical facet joint degeneration was adapted, and its prevalence was evaluated by categorizing the joints into those at responsible and those at nonresponsible spinal segmental levels. We evaluated the association between rapidly progressive myelopathy and the presence of significant facet joint degeneration or spondylolisthesis at the responsible segmental level. Results: Finally, 140 patients with a mean age of 64.1 ± 12.8 years were analyzed. The prevalence of grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5A, and 5B classification in all facet joints was 72.0%, 9.5%, 10.9%, 4.3%, 2.9%, and 0.4%, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the distribution of CT grades between the joints at the responsible and nonresponsible segmental levels (p < 0.001), with a high prevalence of grade 4 or 5B degeneration at the responsible segmental level, reflecting articular irregularity. There was also a statistically significant relationship between rapidly progressive myelopathy and grade 4 or 5B degeneration at the responsible segmental level (p < 0.001), but not between rapidly progressive myelopathy and spondylolisthesis (p = 0.255). Conclusion: This novel CT classification for facet joints deserves additional evaluation in patients with DCM. Abnormal findings on the articular surfaces might be related to the progression of myelopathy.
