At the present time, the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion procedure is widely accepted for treating cervical disc herniation. Recently, however, several authors have reported new disease due to degeneration of an adjacent segment. On the other hand, posterior discectomy, which can preserve mobility at the affected disc level, has been considered risky and technically difficult, especially for central or paracentral disc herniation. We are performing a new surgical technique, microsurgical posterior herniotomy with en bloc laminoplasty, for patients with myelopathy and radiculomyelopathy caused by cervical disc herniation.
