Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the clinical features in patients with multiple cervical disc herniations who were treated with surgical anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) at Bach Mai Hospital. Method: 32 patients diagnosed with cervical disc herniation were operated on by multi-level anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) from 11/2019 to 5/2022 at the Orthopedic and Spine Department of Surgery, Bach Mai Hospital. Results: The male/female ratio was 1,29/1, the average age was 60,56 ± 13,03. The average duration of disease progression was 6,38 ± 5,51 months. The common symptoms were neck pain, sensation disorders, manual dexterity decline, hyperreflexia, and positive Hoffman signs. Cervical myelopathy syndrome accounts for 93,7% and the mJOA score was 10,66 ± 2,78, which was not a statistically significant difference between patients with 2 levels and 3 levels of disc herniation. The avergage NDI was 38.56 ± 21.09%. Conclusions:  Multi-level cervical disc herniation patients have a variety of clinical symptoms, 93,7% of patients had cervical myelopathy syndrome, mJOA score was not a statistically significant difference between patients with 2 levels and 3 levels of disc herniation
