The neck implant is designed to replace a Arctic Blast Review damaged or diseases intervertebral disc in the neck. This can be seen with degenerative disc disease a herniated cervical disc or maybe a post-traumatic issue.This disc problem then creates a situation where pinched nerves occur. Nerves may be pinched directly from disc material that has extruded into an area where it’s not supposed to be. Or with a degenerative disc height in the disc space is lost to such an extent that nerves are compressed indirectly as they try to exit from the spine.
The neck artificial disc surgery is done with a surgical approach through the front area (just off to the side) of the neck. Neck muscles are not split but separated from each other making the post-operative pain very tolerable in most cases.Once the spine is reached a device is put in to keep the esophagus vessels and musculature to the sides and the complete diseased disc is then removed. Once the complete disc is remove the vertebral bodies are spared except for some shaping that needs to be done to accept the implant.
Instruments are used to size for the cervical disc replacement and then the metallic implant with a plastic spacer is implanted. There are a few different kinds of neck disc replacements with some being “press-fit” while others actually have a screw above and below into the bone to keep it more stable. A real time x-ray machine called fluouroscopy is used to make sure the implant is centered properly. This is key as it is important to have the implanted centered to try as best as possible to recreate physiologic range of motion.Patients usually leave the hospital within 24 hours and the pain relief and complication profiles have shown similarity to regular neck fusions.
Cervical disc replacements have shown equivalency so far to cervical fusions. Cervical fusions from the front have been an extremely successful operation by and large with over a 95% success rate. Cervical disc replacements cost more however so long term studies are necessary to see if the cost benefit is present when compared to clinical outcomes.When dealing with pain it’s not always easy or possible to hit a home run and achieve a pain free existence with treatment. It is possible though but then it is unreasonable after doing well with treatment to expect that pain free existence to continue forever.
