The clinical results were evaluated using J. O. A. score of cervical myelopathy and the change of activities of daily living such as eating, standing and walking.<br>After operation J. O. A. score was not improved remarkably. But ADL was improved in all cases and no case became worse.<br>The surgical treatment will be indicated for the severe cervical spondylotic myelopathy in order to improve the ADL and prevent the worsening of the symptom of each case.
