Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare radiological and clinical outcomes between alternate levels (C4 and C6) and all levels mini-plate fixation in C3-6 unilateral open-door laminoplasty.
Methods: Ninety-six patients who underwent C3-6 unilateral open-door laminoplasty with alternate levels mini-plate fixation (54 patients in group A) or all levels mini-plate fixation (42 patients in group B) between September 2014 and September 2019 were reviewed in this study. Radiologic and clinical outcomes were assessed.
Many surgical procedures have been developed for the treatment of post-traumatic thoracolumbar kyphosis. But there is a significant controversy over the ideal management.

Contralateral radiculopathy, as a complication of TLIF, has been recognized in this institution, but is rarely reported in the literature.
Patient Concerns: In this article, we report 2 cases of contralateral radiculopathy after TLIF in our institution and its associated complications.
Rationale: Extremely sharp angular spinal deformity of healed tuberculosis can be corrected by vertebral column resection (VCR). However, the VCR techniques have many limitations including spinal column instability, greater blood loss, and greater risk of neurologic deficit.
Patient Concerns: We described a new spinal osteotomy technique to collect sharp angular spinal deformity in Pott disease.
