Motion sparing neck surgery—as the name suggests—is a family of operative techniques that aim to correct cervical spine pathology while preserving the spine’s natural range of motion. Unlike traditional fusion procedures, which immobilize the affected vertebrae to achieve stability, motion sparing approaches (such as cervical disc arthroplasty, facet joint replacement, and laminoplasty) strive to maintain or restore the neck’s flexibility, thereby reducing the cascade of adjacent segment degeneration and post operative stiffness that plague many patients. Yet, despite their promise, these innovations confront a critical problem: a lack of consensus on patient selection, long term outcomes, and cost effectiveness, leaving surgeons and patients alike uncertain about when and how to best deploy motion preservation in everyday practice.
