Disc Replacement Surgery
When compared to conventional spinal fusion surgery, artificial disc replacement surgery in the neck or back provides many benefits:
Preserves range of motion
for a more natural feeling in the neck or back
Prevents degeneration
of discs above and/or below the affected disc(s)
Offers a faster recovery
so patients can return to activities sooner
Why Artificial Disc Replacement?
“Historically, most cervical surgeries result in fusion, which provides pain relief, but at a cost of loss of motion and higher risk of additional future surgeries. Recent clinical studies have shown that 4 years after cervical fusion, the risk of adjacent level degeneration is increased by nearly three-fold compared to disc replacement.
The Disc Replacement Center at Jordan Valley Medical Center offers an alternative—artificial disc replacement, which provides pain relief and preserves motion and function.”
