I have been reading in the forum that most people have anterior and posterior surgery. My doctor said last week due to my respiratory condition that anterior surgery is out of the question and posterior only will be done. I read somewhere that posterior is only done on younger people due to the flexibility of the spine but anterior and posterior is required on adults due to the rigidity of the spine. I am 47 and will be having posterior surgery only. Will this impact anything negatively or positively? Does it have an impact either way. Confused?
Thanks!
