Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall Success

    Sponsor Definition of Overall Success: (1) Subject's NDI score improved by at least 20% over preoperative baseline value (2) Subject's neurologic parameters, i.e. motor, sensory, and reflexes were maintained or improved as compared to preoperative baseline value (3) No removals, revisions, re-operations, or additional fixation were required to modify any implant (4) No adverse events occurred which were related to the treatment, ProDisc-C or its implantation or ACDF surgery or its associated implants or graft material

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 60 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Symptomatic cervical disc disease (SCDD) in one vertebral level between C3-C7 defined as: Neck or arm (radicular) pain; and/or a functional/neurological deficit with at least one of the following conditions confirmed by imaging (CT, MRI or X-rays): Herniated nucleus pulposus; Spondylosis (defined by the presence of osteophytes); and/or Loss of disc height.
  • Age between 18 and 60 years.
  • Unresponsive to non-operative treatment for approximately six weeks or has the presence of progressive symptoms or signs of nerve root/spinal cord compression in the face of conservative treatment.
  • NDI score greater than or equal to 15/50 (30%).
  • Psychosocially, mentally and physically able to fully comply with the protocol including adhering to follow-up schedule and requirements and filling out forms.
  • Signed informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • More than one vertebral level requiring treatment.
  • Marked cervical instability on resting lateral or flexion/extension radiographs: translation greater than 3mm and/or greater than 11 degrees of rotational difference to that of either adjacent level.
  • Has a fused level adjacent to the level to be treated.
  • Radiographic confirmation of severe facet joint disease or degeneration.
  • Known allergy to cobalt, chromium, molybdenum, titanium or polyethylene.
  • Clinically comprised vertebral bodies at the affected level(s) due to current or past trauma, e.g. by the radiographic appearance of fracture callus, malunion or nonunion.
  • Prior surgery at the level to be treated.
  • Severe spondylosis at the level to be treated as characterized by any of the following: Bridging osteophytes; A loss of disc height greater than 50%; or Absence of motion (\<2°).
  • Neck or arm pain of unknown etiology.
  • Paget's disease, osteomalacia or any other metabolic bone disease (excluding osteoporosis which is addressed above).
  • Severe diabetes mellitus requiring daily insulin management.
  • Pregnant or interested in becoming pregnant in the next three years.
  • Active infection - systemic or local.
  • Taking medications or any drug known to potentially interfere with bone/soft tissue healing (e.g., steroids).
  • Rheumatoid arthritis or other autoimmune disease.
  • +2 more criteria
