Assessing Surgical Site Infection Risks in Posterior Cervical Decompression: The Role of Local Fat Thickness

2025-06-04

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Local subcutaneous fat thickness has been identified as a significant predictor for the risk of surgical site infection (SSI) in lumbar spine procedures. Emerging research suggests its potential relevance in posterior cervical spine surgery as well. This study aims to further explore the connection, focusing on the comparative impact of Body Mass Index (BMI) and...
