prodisc C Vivo: Proven Keel-Less Cervical Total Disc Replacement
What Is Cervical Disc Replacement?
Persistent neck pain, sometimes even radiating down to arm pain, can be the result of disrupted cervical discs. Cervical discs are the cushions between the neck bones of the spine, which can be damaged through traumatic injury or age-related degeneration.
Cervical disc replacement is one of the surgical options to safely and effectively alleviate neck pain by removing the damaged disc and replacing it with an artificial disc. Artificial discs attach to the upper and lower vertebrae, and the mechanisms within the artificial disc mimic the natural motion allowed by a healthy disc.
