Following admission, the patient underwent an anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) procedure. Postoperatively, the patient began to exhibit symptoms on the opposite (right) side. Follow-up imaging showed a reduction in disc space height at the posterior aspect of the C5\/6 level, along with a slight posterior shift of the C5 vertebra. A revision surgery was performed. The symptoms were alleviated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>For patients with cervical foraminal stenosis, restoring posterior disc height is critical for enlarging the foramen.
