    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Orthopedics
    • Spinal Surgery

    Background:

    • Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative condition affecting the cervical spine.
    • Muscle weakness, particularly in the shoulder girdle, can be an atypical symptom.

    Observation:

    • Forty cases of cervical spondylosis presented with shoulder girdle muscle weakness.
    • Compression occurred at the C3/4 intervertebral space, affecting the spinal cord and nerve roots.
    • Sensory loss was frequently absent in affected individuals.

    Findings:

    • Prompt surgical intervention using Cloward's operation led to recovery in over half of the cases.
    • The study highlights a specific pattern of neurological deficit related to cervical spondylosis.
    • Early diagnosis and radical treatment are crucial for favorable outcomes.

    Implications:

    • This research emphasizes the importance of considering cervical spondylosis in the differential diagnosis of shoulder girdle weakness.
    • Timely surgical management, such as Cloward's procedure, can significantly improve patient outcomes.
    • Further investigation into the pathogenesis may refine diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for this condition.
