Cervical spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the spinal canal. Degenerative cervical spinal stenosis can occur as a result of disc degeneration, osteophyte formation, and hypertrophy of spinal canal ligaments. Diagnosis is primarily made with clinical history and examination in order to assess for classic myelopathic signs (motor weakness, hyperreflexia, and other specific tests). Radiologic imaging is used to validation the diagnosis and to determine the extent of stenosis. Magnetic resonance imaging is the most useful and noninvasive modality. Cervical spinal stenosis without myelopathy can be managed nonsurgically with strengthening, physical therapy, traction, orthosis, and pain management (cervical epidural steroid injections and selective nerve root blocks). Cervical spondylolisthesis has received insufficient attention in comparison to spondylolisthesis of the lumbar spine. It is primarily considered a surgical condition, yet few publications have been dedicated to the topic.
