ConclusionsThe data of this study suggest that the implementation of ERAS protocol decreases LOS, cost and complications rates and improve satisfaction for the patients undergoing anterior cervical spine surgery. To support the practice use of ERAS in anterior cervical spine surgery further, controlled trials will be indispensable.
