Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to compare cervical collar versus neck stabilization surgery in diagnosed patients of Hirayama disease who have been reporting worsening of problems in the past six months The main questions it aims to answer are

Is cervical stabilization surgery Posterior cervical fixation superior to conservative management in the form of cervical collar placement in patients with progressive Hirayama disease observed at six months after intervention

Participants will have equal chance to

Undergo cervical fixation surgery
Cervical collar management The investigators will study and compare the efficacy of both treatments upto six months after intervention
Detailed Description: 1 Study design

Prospective randomized open blinded endpoint PROBE phase III study
2 Inclusion criteria

All the following

1 Age 18 years
2 Patients with Hirayama disease as per the following criteria All of the following 16

1 Clinical evidence of wasting and weakness confined to one limb EMG evidence of denervation in the opposite limb will not be a reason for exclusion
2 Progressive course or initial progression followed by stationary course and
3 No evidence of a compressive lesion of the spinal cord
3 Disease duration of 4 years
4 Progression of clinical symptoms in the past six-months c Exclusion criteria

Any of the following

1 Refusal to consent for randomization 2 Not willing to come for three- and six-months follow-up e Procedures at baseline

1 Clinical electrophysiology and autonomic function assessments

After the clinical diagnosis by inclusion criteria the patients will undergo a detailed clinical examination as per the case record form CRF which includes power autonomic features grip strength and the objective assessment of the electrophysiological parameters
2 Radiological assessment

All patients will undergo MR imaging on a 15 T MR scanner Optima 450w General Electric Milwaukee USA using an 8-channel cervical-thoracic-lumbar array spine coil The imaging will include axial and sagittal T2-WIs and post-gadolinium T1C in flexion neutral and extension positions In addition DTI protocol will include sagittal and axial acquisition of cervical cord in neutral position MR-DTI data will process on a dedicated workstation Advantage Windows workstation GE Healthcare WI USA using commercially available software Functool 14301 GE HealthCare WI USA After co-registration of raw images to correct the motion and distortion artefacts the ADC and FA images will be generated The mean minimum and maximum values of FA and ADC will be recorded from region of maximum cord compression T2-hyperintensity

The investogators will get a cervical spine radiograph at the time of discharge and at 6 months
3 Surgical procedure

The patients who are randomized to undergo posterior cervical fixation will be admitted in Neurosciences Centre All India Institute of Medical Sciences New Delhi These patients will undergo routine preoperative work up including routine blood investigations and a detailed preanesthetic checkup PAC These patients will undergo posterior cervical fixation in the form of cervical lateral mass screw fixation in extension without decompression under general anesthesia
