Cervical spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal and/or the spinal nerve root passages in your neck. When this narrowing occurs, your spinal cord and/or nerves may become compressed and cause symptoms such as pain, numbness, tingling and weakness in your neck, shoulders, and extremities.

How is it performed?

surgery is performed through a small incision in the front of the neck. The damaged disc is removed, and a bone graft is inserted to restore normal spacing between the adjacent vertebrae. This newly-created space allows enough room for the nerve roots to travel through the foramina unimpeded.
