At our Hyderabad Ortho Spine & Pain Care Centre, we offer two main surgical options depending on the patient's condition:

1. Cervical Disc Replacement (Artificial Disc Arthroplasty)

This is a motion-preserving procedure where the damaged disc is removed and replaced with an artificial disc implant. It is ideal for younger or active patients with one or two levels of disc degeneration who want to maintain natural neck movement.

Benefits:

• Preserves neck flexibility and motion
• Reduces stress on adjacent spinal levels
• Shorter recovery time
• Lower risk of future adjacent segment degeneration

2. Cervical Fusion (Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion – ACDF)
In this procedure, the diseased disc is removed and replaced with a bone graft or cage, allowing the two vertebrae to fuse into a single, stable unit over time. Fusion is typically recommended when stability is a
concern or if multiple discs are involved.

Benefits:

• Proven and reliable long-term results
• Effective relief of nerve compression symptoms
• Strong and stable neck support

Our fellowship-trained spine surgeons are experienced in both disc replacement and fusion techniques, using advanced imaging, microsurgical tools, and neuromonitoring for precision and safety. We personalize the choice of procedure based on:

• Age and activity level
• Number of affected discs
• Severity of degeneration or herniation
• Patient goals and expectations
• Postoperative Care & Recovery

After surgery, most patients experience significant pain relief and improved function within a few days.
Our integrated team supports you through:

• Tailored physiotherapy and rehabilitation
• Pain management and posture correction
• Long-term follow-up and spine health monitoring
