Cervical Footprint Anthropometry in Indian Population: Implications on Design of Artificial Disc Replacement Devices.
STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study. PURPOSE To accurately measure the dimensions of cervical endplates based on computed tomography (CT) scans in Indian population and assess accuracy of match with currently available cervical disc prostheses. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE The dimensions of currently available cervical disc replacement implants are based on early published geometrical measurements...
متن کاملCervical artificial disc replacement: still experimental? Introduction and perspectives on cervical artificial disc replacement
Fernstrom spherical endoprostheses, utilized in the 1960s, may have been the first artificial discs implanted in humans. These were non-articulating, ball-bearinglike devices that replaced discs and preserved motion. In 1966, Fernstrom reported the use of these devices in the cervical, as well as the lumbar spine [1] (Fig 1). Modern cervical artificial disc replacement (C-ADR) first made its de...
متن کاملArtificial Disc Replacement, Cervical - 11/11
Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is currently considered the definitive surgical treatment for symptomatic single-level degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine. The goals of ACDF are to relieve pressure on the spinal nerves (decompression) and to restore spinal column alignment and stability. Resolution of pain and neurological symptoms may be expected in more than 8...
متن کاملArtificial cervical disc replacement--an update.
Rationals for total disc replacement Dynamic reconstruction of a degenerative “functional spinal unit” (FSU) is a rapidly growing field in spinal surgery. So far anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), first described by Smith and Robinson and by Cloward in the 1950s, is the most common surgical procedure proven successful in the treatment of symptoms caused by cervical degenerative dis...
