Article Abstract
Study Design: A nonrandomized, prospective, and single-center clinical trial.
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether the prosthesis design, and especially changes in the primary anchoring mechanism between the keel-based ProDisc C and the spike-based ProDisc Vivo, affects the frequency of heterotopic ossification (HO) formation over time.
Summary Of Background Data: The occurrence of motion-restricting HO as well as underlying risk factors has so far been a widely discussed, but not well understand phenomenon. The anchoring mechanism and the opening of the anterior cortex may be possible causes of this unwanted complication.
Methods: Forty consecutive patients treated with the ProDisc C and 42 consecutive patients treated with the ProDisc Vivo were compared with respect to radiological and clinical outcome, with 2 years of follow-up. Clinical outcome scores included the Neck Disability Index (NDI), Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and arm and neck pain self-assessment questionnaires. Radiological outcomes included the segmental lordosis and range of motion (ROM) of the index-segment as well as the occurrence of HO.
Results: The clinical outcome parameters improved in both groups significantly. [ProDisc C: VAS arm and neck pain from 6.3 and 6.2 preoperatively to 0.7 and 1.3; NDI from 23.0 to 3.7; ProDisc Vivo: VAS arm and neck pain from 6.3 and 4.9 to 1.4 and 1.6, NDI from 34.1 to 8.7; 2-year follow-up (FU)]. The ProDisc Vivo cohort demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of HO than the ProDisc C group at 1-year FU (P = 0.0005) and 2-year FU (P = 0.005). Specifically, high-grade HO occurred in 9% versus 31%.
Conclusion: These findings demonstrate that prosthesis designs that allow primary anchoring without violation of the cortical surface help to reduce the incidence of severe ossification, possibly affecting the functionality and mobility of the artificial disc device over of time.
Level Of Evidence: 3.

A comparative study of the effect of facet tropism on the index-level kinematics and biomechanics after artificial cervical disc replacement (ACDR) with Prestige LP, Prodisc-C vivo, and Mobi-C: a finite element study.

Introduction: Artificial cervical disc replacement (ACDR) is a widely accepted surgical procedure in the treatment of cervical radiculopathy and myelopathy. However, some research suggests that ACDR may redistribute more load onto the facet joints, potentially leading to postoperative axial pain in certain patients. Earlier studies have indicated that facet tropism is prevalent in the lower cervical spine and can significantly increase facet joint pressure.

Objective: To compare the short-term effectiveness and the impact on cervical segmental range of motion using Prodisc-C Vivo artificial disc replacement and Zero-P fusion for the treatment of single-segment cervical spondylosis.
Methods: The clinical data of 56 patients with single-segment cervical spondylosis who met the selection criteria between January 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into study group (27 cases, using Prodisc-C Vivo artificial disc replacement) and control group (29 cases, using Zero-P fusion) according to different surgical methods. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, age, type of cervical spondylosis, disease duration, involved segments and preoperative pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, neck disability index (NDI), surgical segments range of motion, upper and lower adjacent segments range of motion, overall cervical spine range of motion, and cervical curvature (>0.

Introduction: Cervical disc arthroplasty (CDA), a motion-preserving alternative to anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), is used in military patients for the treatment of disorders such as spondylosis. Since 2007, the FDA has approved eight artificial discs. The objective of this study is to compare the biomechanics after ACDF and CDA with two FDA-approved devices of differing designs under head and head supported mass loadings.
