PRESTIGE® LP Cervical Disc System
The surgical benefits of an anterior approach to the cervical spine in the management of the intractable symptoms and signs associated with cervical disc disease are widely appreciated. Usually, the symptomatic functional spinal unit (FSU) is mobile and mechanically stable preoperatively. Anterior cervical disc fusion, although providing symptomatic relief, has the disadvantage of converting the operated segment to a non-functional spinal unit.
