Degenerative Cervical Myelopathy (DCM) is an age-related disease of the cervical spine and represents one of the most common causes of spinal cord dysfunction. This work is a prospective study of two groups.The first group underwent cervical laminectomy while the second group underwent cervical laminectomy with lateral mass fixation.Patients were followed up for 6 months duration using functional modified Japanese orthopedic score (mJAO), and measurement of C2-C7 cobb`s angle. The results revealed that both approaches has good functional outcome with no significant changes on the sagittal alignment
