The patient’s symptoms should be resolved with either an Anterior Cervical Disectomy and Fusion (ACDF) or a Cervical Artificial Disc Replacement. The advantages of a PRESTIGE Cervical Disc over an ACDF are: motion preservation, and the shorter recovery period. Patients return to their normal life activities a couple of weeks after surgery.
