Abstract EN

The authors retrospectively studied 11 patients with delayed cervical central cord syndrome (CCS) to investigate the efficacy of the surgical intervention on treatment for delayed CCS.

The American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) motor scores, Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) scores, SF-36 scores, and neurologic status were analyzed preoperatively and at each time point of postoperative follow-up.

The results show that patients with reversible spinal cord injury caused by delayed central cord syndrome can recover significantly after surgical intervention.

Therefore, we suggest that surgical intervention is still the ideal choice for delayed cervical central cord syndrome.
