NEOphytos is an attractive alternative to arthrodesis for the management of disc degeneration and herniation in the cervical spine for single and multiple levels assuring faster return to normal activity.NEOphytos is designed for the treatment of symptomatic cervical disc which may be causing arm pain, arm weakness or numbness with some degree of neck pain. These symptoms may occur due to a herniated disc and/or osteophytes compressing adjacent nerves or the spinal cord.
Features:
- NEO-phytos is composed of a silicone center with titanium endplates.
- It is designed as a one piece two – materials device that allows unconstrained motion.
- The endplates are coated with Hydroxyapatite that allows bone in-growth, they also have three spikes for fixation and securely placement.
- NEO-phytos is designed to match the natural contour of the uncovertebral joint allowing a normal range of motion (flexion, extension, side bending and rotation) and alignment (height and curvature).
- NEO-phytos allows for a press-fit implantation and has the ability to absorb a large compressive load while still providing adequate motion between two adjacent bony vertebrae.
- NEO-phytos comes in two sizes small and medium and three dimensions of 5, 6 and 7mm.
- A friendly and easy to use and place implant that comes in a holder in sterilized package.
- One piece device
- Allows unconstrained motion
- Easy to use and place implant
- User friendly instrumentation
About Artifical Cervical Disc
An artificial cervical disc is a device inserted between two vertebrae in the neck to replace a damaged disc.The intent of the artificial disc is to preserve motion at the disc space. It is an alternative to the commonly performed anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), a surgical procedure that is designed to address the pathology by eliminating motion at the diseased disc level.Artificial disc replacement (ADR) surgery—also known as a total disc arthroplasty or total disc replacement (TDR)—is typically performed for a patient with a cervical disc herniation that is causing significant neck pain and/or arm pain that has not responded to nonsurgical treatment options and is significantly affecting the individual’s quality of life and ability to function.Source:https://www.spine-health.com
