Proposal of a new score system (Cervical Surgical Score) for management of degenerative cervical myelopathy.
Background: To date, no shared algorithms with the aim of guiding surgical strategy in complex cases of degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) exist. Our purpose is to present the Cervical Surgical Score (CSS) which could help in identifying complex DCM cases, suggesting a surgical strategy.
Methods: We created the CSS based on multidisciplinary and literature-focused discussions, based on eight parameters including number of levels of cervical pathology and myelopathy, type and predominance of compression and grade of clinical myelopathy. We prospectively enrolled surgical DCM patients in a 15-months period, collecting clinical and radiological data. During outpatient clinic a specific surgical indication was offered to DCM patients. To validate the score, each outpatient clinic surgical indication was compared a posteriori to the one that resulted from multidisciplinary CSS scoring, focusing on patients for which both an anterior and posterior approach were considered suitable.
Results: A total of 100 patients operated on for DCM at our Institution between December 2021 and February 2023 were prospectively enrolled. In 53% of patients the pathology was present at more than two levels. According to CSS calculation, 14% of patients resulted in the "grey zone", where both an anterior and posterior approach were deemed feasible. Among them, in 42.8% of cases the CSS allowed a modification of the originally planned surgery. Looking at outcome, an improvement of m-JOA score in 62% of patients was disclosed.
Conclusions: This preliminary study showed the reliability and usefulness of CSS in detecting complex DCM cases, requiring further analysis by expert spine surgeons, suggesting a surgical strategy.
