For a long-term period (25-30 years) the author sums up the results obtained by cervical discectomy through a ventral route followed by interbody arthrodisis. In the disc diseases, the radicular syndromes gave excellent results, the medullar syndromes good results. In the cervical injuries, the results were always good. The discussion analyses the different physio-pathologic elements of this intervention. In lateral amyotrophic sclerosis the results were always bad.
