Cervical Disc Replacement
Beyond Fusion: Pioneering Tomorrow's Cervical Disc Replacement with Expert Precision
Welcome to Universal Hospital, where we specialize in Cervical Disc Replacement—a cutting-edge surgical procedure designed to alleviate pain and restore mobility in the neck. Our team of expert surgeons is dedicated to providing personalized and effective care to enhance the quality of life for individuals suffering from cervical disc issues.
Conditions Treated with Cervical Disc Replacement:
Cervical disc replacement is a surgical procedure designed to address specific conditions in the cervical spine.
Common conditions include:
- Cervical Disc Degeneration: When one or more cervical discs experience wear and tear, resulting in pain and reduced mobility.
- Herniated Discs: Surgical intervention to replace a damaged or herniated cervical disc that is causing compression of spinal nerves.
- Cervical Radiculopathy: Replacement of a diseased disc to alleviate nerve compression and associated symptoms.
Cervical Disc Replacement Procedure:
- Preoperative Evaluation: Comprehensive assessments, including imaging studies, are conducted to precisely diagnose the cervical spine condition.
- Patient Consultation: Detailed discussions with patients to explain the diagnosis, surgical options, and expected outcomes, including the option of cervical disc replacement.
- Surgical Intervention:
- The patient is positioned on the operating table, and the surgical site is prepared.
- An incision is made in the front of the neck (anterior approach) to access the cervical spine.
- The damaged disc is carefully removed, and the artificial disc is inserted into the disc space.
- Postoperative Care and Rehabilitation: Meticulous postoperative care, including physical therapy, to support the patient’s recovery and rehabilitation.
Advantages of Cervical Disc Replacement:
- Preservation of Motion: Unlike traditional fusion procedures, disc replacement allows for continued motion at the treated level, preserving flexibility.
- Reduced Adjacent Segment Stress: The preservation of motion may reduce stress on adjacent discs, potentially lowering the risk of adjacent level degeneration.
- Quicker Recovery: Patients often experience a faster return to normal activities compared to traditional fusion surgeries.
- Minimized Impact on Neck Biomechanics: Disc replacement aims to mimic the natural movement of the spine, reducing the alteration of neck biomechanics.
