Cervical Spine Surgery with Prosthetic Disc and Cage

ID: exh79317b
This board depicts the surgical response taken after the discography picked out where the injury was located. The steps include the initial incision to expose C5-C7, the keel cuts to remove the disc material at C5-C6, and the insertion of the replacement disc. Also included is the second discectomy performed at C6-C7 and the insertion and securing of a cage into the resultant space. The last image of the board is a film interpretation showing the spine with all the final hardware in place and an inset of the actual film.
