Book an AppointmentArtificial disc replacement involves surgically replacing a diseased or damaged disc in the spine with a prosthetic disc. The procedure is also known as ADR, total disc replacement, or TDR.
ADR involves the surgeon making a small incision in the abdomen, removing the damaged disc from between two vertebrae (spinal bones), and replacing it with a prosthetic disc made of specialised metal and polyethylene.
Chronic back or neck pain can develop from a variety of conditions. Chronic back pain is often caused by unhealthy or damaged intervertebral discs. These spinal discs act as a cushion between the vertebrae, absorbing pressure and stress.
When these spinal discs are damaged in an accident or become unhealthy over time, the vertebrae may come into direct contact, causing discomfort. Fortunately, innovative treatments and artificial disc replacement surgery can help alleviate these unpleasant symptoms.
In both short and long-term clinical studies, cervical artificial disc replacement surgery has a higher success rate than anterior cervical discectomy and fusion surgery.
Cervical artificial disc replacement has undergone extensive clinical trials, yielding an effective and safe treatment option for cervical disc degeneration with myelopathy or radicular symptoms.
