About Cervical Disc Replacement
Cervical Disc Replacement is generally for patients that have cervical disc disease. In this procedure, one of the cervical discs in the patient's spine will be replaced with an artificial disc. The doctor does this by making an incision in the neck, accessing the spine, and then replacing the original cervical disc with the artificial replacement. The procedure is performed under general anesthesia.Read More about Cervical Disc Replacement →Dr. Hitesh Garg
