    Objective: It was aimed to evaluate the patients who underwent laminoplasty for the various pathologies that were located in the spinal canal. Materials and Methods: The records of the patients who underwent osteoplastic laminoplasty for various pathologies between 2014 and 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Patient data including age, gender, preoperative and postoperative neurological conditions, type and radiographic localization of their pathologies, preoperative and postoperative deformities, involved segments, hospitalization periods and postoperative complications were gathered. Results: Sixty-two patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 44.3 years (9-80 years). Fifty-two patients had tumoral and 10 patients had non-tumoral pathologies. Grade 3 and 4 patients were predominant in the preoperative period, while grade 1 and 2 patients were predominant in the postoperative period according to Modified McCormick Scale classification of the patients. Twenty-three patients had preoperative deformity. A total of 138 laminae were reconstructed. One patient had cerebrospinal fluid leak in the long-term period and 1 patient had quadriplegia and respiratory deficiency in the postoperative period. In only 1 patient, a new-onset deformity developed and in 1 patient, progression of previous deformity was seen. However, the deformities of these patients did not require corrective surgery. Conclusion: Laminoplasty technique has recently gained popularity and begun to replace traditional laminectomy technique. Laminoplasty is a preferred technique with the low complication rates and high patient-comfort in the postoperative period. ©Copyright 2021 by the Turkish Spine Society / The Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery published by Galenos Publishing House.
