Total Disc Replacement remains one of the most essential surgical procedures for replacement of painful disc

 

Total Disc Replacement (T Disc) has helped thousands of patients suffering from degenerated intervertebral discs that cannot be fixed by conventional techniques. Total Disc is a minimally invasive and non-invasive technique that uses customized spinal fusion units in order to repair or replace problematic spinal discs. Total disc replacement technology has evolved during the last ten years, resulting in better patient outcomes and more widespread application across the country.


 

The first clinical use of total disc replacement was to treat patients diagnosed with symptomatic cholecystitis. Cholecystitis is an inflammation of the intervertebral discs responsible for protecting the vertebrae against fluid retention, movement, and pressure. Patients with symptomatic cholecystitis have recurring symptoms, which are manifested by recurrent aches and pains that cannot be easily eliminated by the application of topical pain medications. Furthermore, the symptoms of cholecystitis are worsened by the presence of degenerated intervertebral discs. In fact, in most cases of cholecystitis, the patient's condition does not improve even with the application of several weeks of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and other conservative treatments, such as oral steroids, paracetamol, corticosteroids, and oral hypnosis.

Today, there are several different types of intervertebral disc replacement techniques. Spinal fusion or artificial disc replacement is by far the most successful method of surgically repairing spinal stenosis, especially when compared to conservative treatment methods. Compared to spinal surgery, artificial disc replacement offers a faster recovery rate and a lessened amount of pain and discomfort. Furthermore, in most instances, the patient can resume normal activities at a much faster rate, and can even resume work sooner than before. Total disc replacement surgeries are among the most successful procedures available today when it comes to treating spinal stenosis. Recently, in March 2019, AxioMed LLC, a U.S.-based company, received CE Mark for its Cervical Freedom Total Replacement.
