Artificial Disc Replacement Treatment in India

Artificial disc replacement removes a damaged spinal disc and replaces it with a synthetic device designed to preserve natural movement between vertebrae. Unlike spinal fusion, this motion-preserving procedure maintains flexibility in the spine while relieving pain from disc degeneration, making it a preferred option for suitable candidates.

• Chronic neck or lower back pain
• Pain, numbness, or weakness radiating into the arms or legs
• Stiffness that limits daily activity
• Pain that improves with rest but returns with movement

Artificial disc replacement is considered for patients with disc degeneration at one or two spinal levels who have not responded to conservative treatment and who wish to preserve spinal motion. Not all patients are candidates; your surgeon will confirm suitability based on imaging and bone health.

• Performed under general anesthesia
• The damaged disc is removed through a small incision
• An artificial disc device is inserted in its place
• Designed to maintain natural range of motion at the treated level
• Surgery duration is typically 2-3 hours

• 2-3 days hospital stay
• Most patients walk within a day of surgery
• Return to light activities within 3-4 weeks
• Physical therapy supports strength and mobility
• Full recovery typically within 8-12 weeks

• Spine surgeons experienced in motion-preserving technology
• Alternative to fusion for eligible patients
• Faster return to activity compared to traditional fusion
• Transparent, all-inclusive pricing
• Coordinated care from consultation through recovery
