Core Tip	Cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) is the most common form of cervical spondylotic disease. To date, no study has documented any link between CSR and hypertensive emergencies (HE). We here present a case of a typical patient with CSR who experienced a hypertensive crisis during the preparatory phase for anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery. This event was attributable to slight cervical spine hyperextension. Ultimately, the patient's CSR was resolved through posterior cervical canal expansion and foraminoscope-assisted transforaminal nucleus pulposus extraction. After the 6-month follow-up period, the patient exhibited normal neck flexion and blood pressure was stable during neck movements.
