Postoperative results of aged patients were influenced by the duration from onset and the severity of myelopathy.The problems of cervical spinal surgery for aged patients included the diagnosis, the pre and postoperative complications, the indication of surgery, the selection of proper operative method and so on. Both the selection of the proper operative method and the prevention of pre and postoperative complications leading to early rehabilitation were responsible in obtaining good results.
