Prestige® Cervical Disc System Technique
The surgical benefits of an anterior approach to the cervical spine in the management of the intractable symptoms and physical findings associated with cervical degenerative disc disease are well known. Usually, the symptomatic functional spinal unit (FSU) is mobile and mechanically stable. Anterior cervical disc fusion, though providing symptomatic relief, has the disadvantage of converting the operated segment to a non-functional spinal unit.
Cervical disc arthroplasty is intended to preserve the motion segment, reduce return to work time, and reduce reoperations due to pseudoarthrosis.
