Type  Name  Details 
Intervention  Anterior cervical fusion  Anterior cervical fusion is a surgery where the disc is removed and a cage is inserted to achieve union of two cervical bones

Brief Summary   This academic study will be done at Sakra World Hospital. The patients (56) with degenerative cervical diseases and who fulfill the selection criteria will be randomized and will be grouped into Group A (28) - Grafton and Group B (28) - bone graft group. Both groups will be operated with Anterior cervical fusion surgeries with Divergence cage and the cage will be filled with Grafton - DBM in A group and local bone graft in B group. They will be analyzed and compared at 0,3,6,12 months both clinically and radiologically (Xray and CT). The clinical parameters that will be analyzed are m-JOA, VAS score for neck and radicular pain, Nuricks, Odoms criteria, and NDI. Radiologically they will be analyzed for fusion status and the time taken for fusion. The outcomes will be analyzed, compared and appropriate statistics will be applied for the interpretation of results
