Overview

Retrospective case series reports on CVJ compression in four pediatric patients, suggesting effective surgical management.

Key Points

  • Postoperative outcomes were favorable, with all four patients showing neurological improvement within six months.
  • Three of the four patients had no motor deficits during follow-up, highlighting successful surgical intervention.
  • Cervical myelopathy in mucopolysaccharidosis requires prompt imaging evaluation for effective management.
  • An individualized surgical plan improves outcomes, but findings are based on a very small sample size.
