 Abstract To explore the curative effect and influencing factors of anterior decompression for cervical spondylotic myelopathy,the effects and common influencing factors of 152 patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy treated by anterior decompression from May of 1986 to February of 1994 were analyzed.The result showed that the factors including cause of disease,patient age and the condition had much to do with the effect,but operative scope and method had no relation with the effect.We suggested that operation was performed as soon as possible when cervical spondylotic myelopathy was diagnosed.The satisfactory result was achieved by proper operative way and decompression scope.
 Key words Cervical spondylotic myelopathy;Anterior decompression;Influencing factors
