Background. @entity4720 can cause three different categories of symptoms and signs with possible overlap in the affected @entity1 . Aim. We aim to compare functional outcome of surgery in the @entity1 with cervical @entity614 and @entity602 , regardless of their surgical type and approach. Materials and Methods. We retrospectively reviewed 140 @entity1 with cervical @entity614 and @entity602 who had been operated from August 2006 to January 2011, as Group A (68 cases) and Group B (72 cases), respectively. The mean age was 48.2 and 55.7 years, while the mean followup was 38.9 and 37.3 months, respectively. Functional outcome of the @entity1 was assessed by @entity717 ( @entity717 ) and @entity1 satisfaction with surgery. Results. Only in Group A, the longer delay caused a worse surgical outcome ( @entity717 ). In addition, in Group B, there was no significant relationship between imaging signal change of the spinal cord and our surgical outcomes. Improvement in @entity717 and final satisfaction rate in both groups are comparable. Conclusions. Surgery was associated with an improvement in @entity717 in both groups (P < 0.001). The functional results in both groups were similar and comparable, regarding this index and @entity1 's satisfaction score.
