All patients were assessed with JOA grade before and 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after treatment, and improvement rate was calculated.ResultsJOA grade of all patients increased after both surgical and conservative treatment ( P< 0.001), but the effect of surgical treatment was significant better than that of conservative treatment ( P< 0.001).ConclusionThe effect of early surgical treatment on cervical spinal cord injury without fracture and dislocation is superior to conservative treatment.
