All patients had complete data and were divided into three groups according to the selected fusion cage. Neck and upper limb pain were assessed by the visual analog scale (VAS) score. Neurological function was evaluated by the modified Japanese Orthopedics Society (mJOA) score. Also, the curvature of the cervical spine and the occurrence of dysphagia were observed.Results: There were no significant differences in the general information, thoracic inlet angle, T1 slope, or surgical data among the groups (p> 0.05). There were significant differences in the scores between pre- and postoperatively in the different groups (p< 0.05). There were no significant differences in the C2-C7 Cobb angle or C2-C7 sagittal vertebral axis before the operation among the groups (p> 0.05). There was a significant difference in the correction and loss of correction among the groups postoperatively and on follow-up (p> 0.05). Dysphagia was less likely in the Zero-P VA fusion group than in the other two groups.Conclusion: Different fusion instruments can relieve the symptoms. In the Prodisc-C Vivo group, no significant improvement in cervical sagittal balance was achieved. A good effect on improving sagittal balance was observed in both the Zero-P VA fusion and Skyline anterior cervical titanium plate groups, but a better effect on preventing dysphagia was observed in the Zero-PVA fusion group.Keywords: retrospective analyze, cervical spondylosis, anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, cervical sagittal balance parameters, fusion devices
