The suitability of cervical spine surgery for 75 year olds needs to be judged on a case-by-case basis; if there are more underlying diseases and poorer health, surgery is not suitable. If there are fewer underlying diseases and better physical condition with obvious indications for surgery, surgery is possible.
Cervical spine surgery is most often seen for spinal cord and nerve compression due to cervical spondylosis or fractures due to cervical spine trauma as well as spinal cord injuries.
If the previous physical condition is poor, with serious underlying diseases such as coronary heart disease, diabetes mellitus and chronic renal failure, the physical condition is poor and the risk of surgery is relatively high, making it unsuitable for surgery. If the previous physical condition is better, the underlying disease is less, and there are obvious indications for surgery, then surgery is needed.
Whether a 75-year-old man is suitable for cervical spine surgery or not, it is recommended to consult the doctor in time, improve the relevant examination, and choose the appropriate treatment plan under the guidance of the doctor.
