Background/aim: Spontaneous spinal epidural hematoma (SSEH) is a rare but serious condition, accounting for less than 1% of spinal lesions, with an incidence of 0.1 per 100,000 annually. Discovered by Jackson in 1869, around 40-50% of SSEH cases often lack a definitive cause, though risk factors, such as anticoagulant usage, vascular malformations, and hypertension are recognized.

Musculoskeletal injuries are a complex multifactorial phenomenon, and several factors can contribute to their occurrence. This review aimed to discuss some relevant and often unexpected elements involved in musculoskeletal injuries and rehabilitation. One of the main factors discussed is the role of physiological adaptation to training in musculoskeletal injury susceptibility.

Study Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Objective: This study aimed to compare postoperative pain and surgical outcomes of open-door laminoplasty (LP) and three types of muscle-sparing laminoplasties, namely unilateral muscle-preservation laminoplasty (UL), spinous process splitting double-door laminoplasty (DL) and intermuscular "raising roof" laminoplasty (RL) for multilevel degenerative cervical myelopathy (MDCM).
Methods: Consecutive MDCM patients underwent LP or modified laminoplasties (UL, DL, RL) in 2022 were enrolled.

Background: Traditional C3-C7 unilateral open-door laminoplasty (UOLP) often leads to various postoperative complications as a result of damage of cervical posterior muscles and nuchal ligaments. We aimed to thoroughly evaluate postoperative outcomes after our modified UOLP versus traditional UOLP in treating multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy (MCSM).
Methods: Seventy-six patients with MCSM who underwent the modified UOLP with C3 laminectomy and C7 upper hemilaminectomy (40 patients) or traditional C3-C7 UOLP (36 patients) were included.

Purpose: To compare the surgical outcomes of modified expansive open-door laminoplasty (EOL) (C4-C6) and traditional EOL (C3-C7) in patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM).
Methods: One hundred and two CSM patients were retrospectively recruited from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between March 2012 and December 2019. Seventy-one patients with CSM underwent modified EOL, and 31 patients underwent traditional EOL.
