Background The clinical success of cervical arthroplasty hinges on the ability to preserve or
improve the biomechanics of the functional spinal unit. The purpose of this study was to …

Object Cervical arthroplasty has emerged as a means of preventing adjacent segment
disease by preserving motion, restoring sagittal balance, and mimicking natural spinal …

Study Design. Prospective cohort study. Objective. To assess the biomechanical profile of
the cervical spine following cervical arthroplasty. Summary of Background Data. Spinal …

Objectives To assess the in vivo longitudinal kinematic performance of the Prestige-LP Disc
and describe the 5-year trends in the center of rotation (COR) at the instrumented level …

Introduction To better understand cervical kinematics following cervical disc replacement
(CDR), the in vivo behavior of a minimally constrained CDR was assessed. Methods …

Object Spinal arthroplasty may become the next gold standard for the treatment of
degenerative cervical spine disease. This new modality must be studied rigorously to ensure …

Study Design. A computer-assisted analysis of dynamic lateral radiographs of the cervical
spine in flexion/extension after total disc replacement. Objective. To analyze the in vivo …

Objectives Cervical total disc replacement (TDR) is an emerging technology. Cervical
arthroplasty theoretically reduces the risk of adjacent level disc degeneration and segmental …

Study Design: A retrospective study. Objective: To identify significant kinematic changes in
the cervical spine after cervical artificial disk replacement (ADR) using prostheses with …

Study Design. Prospective study. Objective. Present results of Prestige LP artificial cervical
disc replacement (ADR). Summary of Background Data. Motion preservation with ADR can …
