Cervical disc replacement involves replacing damaged or degenerated discs in the neck with artificial discs, restoring natural spinal movement and alleviating pain. This procedure is ideal for patients with herniated or degenerated discs causing chronic pain and limited mobility.
A herniated disc is when the intervertebral disc ruptures, spilling its jelly-like center into the spinal canal. Both a degenerated disc and a herniated disc can cause pressure on either the spinal cord or a spinal nerve, leading to neurological symptoms.
Spinal stenosis is the narrowing of spaces within the spine, which can put pressure on the nerves that travel through the spine. It often causes symptoms like pain, numbness, and muscle weakness, most commonly in the lower back and neck.
A herniated disc is when the intervertebral disc ruptures, spilling its jelly-like center into the spinal canal. Different terms are used to express the variances in appearance and the severity of different types of herniations.

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is a surgical procedure where a damaged cervical disc is removed through an incision in the front of the neck. After disc removal, a bone graft or implant is placed to fuse the adjacent vertebrae, stabilizing the spine and alleviating symptoms such as pain and neurological impairment.
Microdiscectomy | Decompression Laminectomy
Spinal decompression surgery encompasses procedures like microdiscectomy and laminectomy to alleviate nerve compression in the spine. By removing bone, ligaments, or disc material, these surgeries aim to create more space for the nerves, alleviating pain, numbness, and weakness.
Dr. Macyszyn is a skilled leader in cervical disc replacement, with an extensive history spanning over 15 years of successful outcomes and patient satisfaction. He provides the same, meticulous care to professional athletes as he does to the neighbor next door.
Repeated strain on the spine, such as from heavy lifting or repetitive motions, can cause a disc herniation over time.
Poor posture, such as slouching or hunching over a desk or computer, can put excess strain on the spine and lead to a disc herniation.
Carrying excess weight can put additional pressure on the spine and increase the risk of a disc herniation.

Decompression surgery, including laminectomy, involves removing part of the vertebral bone called the lamina to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves. This procedure is often used to treat spinal stenosis, herniated discs, or tumors.
