Objective To explore early clinical effects of Centerpiece-based unilateral open-door cervical expansive laminoplasty plus centerpiece titanium minitype plate fixation, to research the data of the best slotting in the CT-based open-door cervical operation and to provide the reference for accurate operation. Methods A retrospective analysis of the patients who had received Centerpiece-based unilateral open-door cervical expansive laminoplasty plus centerpiece titanium plate fixation from West China Hospital of Sichuan University from February 2013 to November 2013 were performed. The neurological function assessment results (JOA score), cervical curvature indexhave, Pavlov value, spinal canal cross-sectional area and different position, angle and depth of C7 lamina slotting data of all patients before and after the operation were all analyzed and compared. Results A total of 58 patients were included. The postoperative JOA score was significantly higher than that of the preoperative (9.4±2.9 vs. 14.7±2.6, t=11.417, P=0.000). The sagittal diameter of vertebral canal (21.3±2.1 mm vs. 9.7±2.1 mm, t=27.737, P=0.000), Pavlov value (0.92±0.13 vs. 0.44±0.12, t=30.621, P=0.000), and spinal canal cross-sectional area (276±37 mm2 vs. 129±25 mm2, t=32.104, P=0.000) at the end of the last follow-up were significantly greater than those of preoperative. When comparing the last follow-up with preoperative, cervical curvature index showed significant difference (11.2±11.5 vs. 9.3±11.7, t=-1.713, P=0.000). Significant differences were found in the comparison of the ideal position and angle of the open door of the C7 lamina and the angle and position of the operation (all P values >0.05); when comparing the position and angle of the ideal position and angle of the C7 lamina hinge with that of the actual operation, no significant differences were found (all P values >0.05); but when comparing the ideal depth with the actual depth of the operation, a significant difference was found (P<0.05). Conclusion Centerpiece micro plate used in posterior cervical expansive open-door laminoplasty forming operation of laminectomy fixed screw loosening and plate breakage, can effectively maintain the lamina in the open state, and prevent it to be closed. The patients have good recovery of nerve function after operation and the clinical efficacy is good.
