Depending upon the size of lesion, laminectomy\/laminoplasty was required for 2 to 8 levels. Vascularized pedicle laminoplasty or free flap laminoplasty was done with Tudor Edwards rib shears. Ligamentum flavum and interspinous and supraspinous ligaments were preserved in cases of vascularized pedicled laminoplasty, which was carried out in 12 cases. Free flap laminoplasty was carried out in 6 cases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In all our cases, laminectomy was successfully achieved with rib shears without any injury to the dura or its underlying structures. It was possible to perform vascularized pedicle laminoplasty or free flap laminoplasty in all cases. Laminectomy was easier to perform in the cervical region and dorsal region, while it was difficult in the lumbar region due to the wider, thick lamina and its angulation, especially in adults.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Laminectomy\/laminoplasty with Tudor Edwards rib shears is quick, safe, and easy. Beveled cut edges with minimal bony loss prevents sinking of laminoplasty, thereby facilitates lamina fixation. This is an alternative method of performing laminectomy\/laminoplasty, especially for those not having accessibility to expensive equipment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.360943","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,24]],"date-time":"2023-08-24T03:28:48Z","timestamp":1692847728000},"page":"S113-S116","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Laminectomy with Rib Shears"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Survendra Kumar","family":"R Rai","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Saswat K","family":"Dandapat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dikpal","family":"Jadhav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Neha","family":"Jadhav","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abhidha","family":"Shah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ranjit D","family":"Rangnekar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-4-20240907","first-page":"607","article-title":"Sir Victor Horsley (1857\u20131916): Pioneer of neurological surgery","volume":"50","author":"Tan","year":"2002","journal-title":"Neurosurgery"},{"key":"R2-4-20240907","first-page":"235","article-title":"En bloc laminoplasty performed with threadwire saw","volume":"48","author":"Hara","year":"2001","journal-title":"Neurosurgery"},{"key":"R3-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"8428530","DOI":"10.1155\/2016\/8428530","article-title":"Technical aspects on the use of ultrasonic bone shaver in spine surgery: Experience in 307 patients","volume":"2016","author":"Hazer","year":"2016","journal-title":"Biomed Res Int"},{"key":"R4-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"226","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.132449","article-title":"Modified French door laminoplasty using autologous spinous process as interlaminar spacer","volume":"62","author":"Mishra","year":"2014","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R5-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"442","DOI":"10.1016\/S0090-3019(97)00292-9","article-title":"Vascularized pedicled laminoplasty","volume":"48","author":"Goel","year":"1997","journal-title":"Surg Neurol"},{"key":"R7-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1222","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.329595","article-title":"Sagittal Balance Correction in Cervical Compressive Myelopathy: Is it Helpful?","volume":"69","author":"Panigrahi","year":"2021","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R8-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"889","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.325338","article-title":"A Study of Diffusion Tensor Imaging in Hirayama Disease","volume":"69","author":"Kalita","year":"2021","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R9-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"407","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.284352","article-title":"Intraoperative electrophysiology in children - Single institute experience of 96 examinations","volume":"68","author":"Fekete","year":"2020","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R10-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"45","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.279672","article-title":"Surgical Outcome in Spinal Operation in Patients Aged 70 Years and Above","volume":"68","author":"Amitkumar","year":"2020","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R11-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1867","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.333514","article-title":"Pseudo-Myotonic Reaction and Pseudo-Polyneuropathy Type Sensory Disturbances in Chronic Cervical Compressive Myelopathy","volume":"69","author":"Anthony","year":"2021","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R12-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"759","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.319219","article-title":"Foreign Body Induced Infective Cervical Spondylodiscitis with Compressive Myelopathy with Quadriparesis","volume":"69","author":"Gupta","year":"2021","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R13-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"937","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.323898","article-title":"Instrumented Four-Level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion: Long-Term Clinical and Radiographic Outcomes","volume":"69","author":"R Soliman","year":"2021","journal-title":"Neurol India"},{"key":"R14-4-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"595","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.317235","article-title":"Atypical Symptoms of Cervical Spondylosis: Is Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion Useful?
