Artificial Disc Replacement
Thanks to progress in the implant development modern spinal disc prosthesis are optimally suited for anatomical and functional conditions within the cervical spine. They hence allow for natural mobility – preserving the whole range of motion of the cervical spine.
Additionally they have a similar bumper character as the natural spinal disc.
Degeneration of spinal discs can lead to severe chronic or intermittent back pain with or without radiations into the legs. This pain can have considerable impact on daily life activities.
Many patients with degenerative spine disease had disc prolapses in their previous medical history. Whereas on x-ray images disc degeneration will not be readily detectable, the degenerative structures can be clearly seen on magnetic resonance images.

Types of Surgeries
Arthroscopy (also called arthroscopic or keyhole surgery) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure on a joint in which an examination and sometimes treatment of damage is performed using an arthroscope, an endoscope that is inserted into the joint through a small incision.
Endoscopic surgery uses scopes going through small incisions or natural body openings in order to diagnose and treat disease. Another popular term is minimally invasive surgery (MIS), which emphasizes that diagnosis and treatments can be done with reduced body cavity invasion.
Open surgery is the traditional type of surgery in which an incision is made using a scalpel. While minimally invasive surgery has become increasingly popular, there are a number of situations in which open surgery is still preferable.
