Brief Summary:
The main objective of this study is to analyze the effects of local anesthetic application into the retropharyngeal space and its ability to reduce dysphagia symptoms and/or occurrence rates in patients undergoing anterior cervical discectomy and fusion.
Detailed Description:
The patients will be randomly assigned into one of the two groups to receive either bupivacaine hydrochloride 0.5% solution if they are randomized to the treatment group or 0.9% NaCl solution if they are randomized to the control group. These solutions will be poured into the retropharyngeal space intraoperatively before wound closure.
