Meanings of cervical disc in anglès

The introduction of cervical disc prosthetic devices was a natural consequence of this development.

Spurling's sign is no more predictive of cervical disc disease than flipping a coin.

Early anterior decompression and fusion was an important approach for cervical disc and longitudinal ligament injury.

Objectives: To study the diagnosis and treatment for the injury of cervical disc and longitudinal ligament.

Only patients who had newly-onset, one- or two-level cervical disc disease causing radiculopathy or myelopathy were identified.

Conclusions: MRI examination is the most value measure for the diagnosis of cervical disc and longitudinal ligament injury.

The third and forth cases demonstrated that a top-down implantation sequence was needed in continuous two-level cervical disc replacement.

In this paper, we summarize our surgical strategies used in multilevel cervical disc replacement and hybrid surgery into five major notes.

Diagnoses included cervical disc disease (57) and cervical spinal stenosis (14) after failed conservative treatment.

Background: Multilevel artificial cervical disc replacement and anterior hybrid surgery have been introduced as reliable treatments for multilevel cervical degenerative disc disease.

Methods: From 2001 to 2005, the clinical data of sixty-three patients with cervical disc and longitudinal ligament injury were studied.

Diagnosis was lumbar spinal stenosis in 20, herniated lumbar discs in 63, degenerative cervical disc disease in 3, and cervical disc herniation in 14 cases.

Results: Radiofrequency ablation nucleoplasty was performed in a total of 59 cervical discs in 27 patients.
