BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to verify the relationship between changes in the segmental sagittal profile (SSP) and changes in the global sagittal profile (GSP) after anterior cervical discectomy with anchored cage implantation (ACDF). STUDY DESIGN: Prospective study with 2-year follow-up. METHODS: This study includes 104 patients after 1-level or 2-level ACDF operated between the May 2013 and March 2016. SSP was evaluated by Cobb angle measurement of operated motion segment (CobbS) and GSP was evaluated by Cobb angle measurement in C2-C7 segments (CobbG). Both SSP and GSP were measured pre- and postoperatively within a 24 months follow-up period. The influence of factors such as age, gender, number of treated segments and osteoporosis was evaluated using t-tests. The correlation between SSP and GSP changes was assessed by Pearson's correlation coefficient. RESULTS: In the early postoperative period after 1-level ACDF, there was a significantly greater increase in CobbS compared to that of the 2-level ACDF (P=0.0149). Male patients experienced a significant decrease of CobbG during the first 6 months after surgery as well as patients with osteoporosis within 12 months after ACDF. After ACDF the SSP change weakly correlated with the GSP change. CONCLUSION: SSP change after 1- or 2-level ACDF correlates mostly weakly with GSP change. Male gender and osteoporosis were identified as risk factors for global lordotisation following ACDF.

INTRODUCTION: Chronic calcified/ossified subdural hematoma is a rare diagnosis. The incidence of chronic calcified subdural hematoma is 0.3-2.7% of all chronic subdural hematomas. Surgical treatment is indicated in most cases, but there is still some controversy. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We present a case report of 81-year-old woman with calcified chronic subdural hematoma. Patient underwent an osteoplastic left craniotomy, evacuation of chronic subdural mass with careful dissection andsuccessful removal of inner and outer membrane. Postoperative CT scan showed removal of subdural hematoma, decrease of left shift of median line and good brain re-expansion. Postoperative period was without any serious complications. RESULTS: Subdural hematoma was successfully removed, resulting in a good recovery with complete resolution of patients symptoms. From our experience, we highly recommend surgical treatment in cases of chronic symptomatic calcified subdural hematomas.
