Article Abstract
Study Design: Systematic literature review.
Objective: To analyze the literature and describe the evidence supporting osteobiologic use in revision anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) surgery.
Methods: A systematic search of PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane library, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases was conducted for literature reporting the use of osteobiologics in revision ACDF. We searched for studies reporting outcomes of using any osteobiologic use in revision ACDF surgeries (independently of the number of levels) in the above databases.
Results: There are currently no studies in the literature describing the outcome and comparative efficacy of diverse osteobiologic agents in the context of revision ACDF surgery. A majority of the current evidence is based only upon studies involving primary ACDF surgery.
Conclusion: The current study highlights the paucity of literature evidence on the role of diverse osteobiologics in revision ACDF, and foregrounds the need for high-quality evidence on this subject.

Study Design: Retrospective review.
Objective: Examine the utility of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) in anterior cervical spine procedures for myelopathy in informing intraoperative interventions.
Summary Of Background Data: The routine use of IONM in anterior cervical spine procedures for myelopathy remains controversial, with poorly defined indications and limited evidence validating protocols for managing intraoperative alerts.

Study Design: Cross-sectional study.
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the failure patterns of expandable corpectomy cages.
Summary Of Background Data: Expandable corpectomy cages offer significant advantages for anterior column reconstruction but introduce unique mechanical complexities.
Does residual foraminal stenosis at levels not covered by anterior cervical discectomy and fusion aggravate postoperative outcomes in cervical radiculopathy?
Asian Spine J
September 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Purpose: To evaluate whether untreated foraminal stenosis (FS) at levels not included in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) impacts postoperative outcomes in patients with cervical radiculopathy and assess if residual FS increases the risk of adjacent segment disease (ASD).
Overview Of Literature: Level selection for ACDF for cervical radiculopathy is complex, considering variable patient anatomy and symptoms.
