摘要：

Anterior cervical discectomy and interbody grafting provide excellent results in treating cervical radiculopathy. This prospective study compares the results of the technique obtaining autogenous bone from the cervical vertebrae for grafting to the modified Smith-Robinson technique using autogenous iliac crest graft. Seven levels in six patients were fused using the vertebral body autograft technique and 43 levels in 40 patients using the standard technique. All patients had radiculopathy and neck pain. Statistically significant differences in fusion rate (4/7 vertebral body autograft; 40/43 modified Smith-Robinson) (p = 0.029), disc height maintenance (p = 0.001), and neck pain improvement (p = 0.05) occurred between the techniques. We do not recommend vertebral body autograft over the modified Smith-Robinson technique for anterior cervical fusion following discectomy.
