Disc Replacement Surgery

Artificial discs bring genuine relief.

Disc replacement surgery involves replacing a painful disc with an artificial disc. This surgery may be performed on the lower back (lumbar spine) or the neck (cervical spine). Artificial discs are designed to mimic the form and function of the spine’s natural disc.

Safe and reproducible implantation.

Dr. Parchuri offers prodisc®, the most studied and clinically proven total disc replacement technology in the world.
Working with leading spine surgeons from around the world, the prodisc instrumentation and surgical technique has been refined to facilitate safe and reproducible implantation. Both the prodisc L and prodisc C surgical procedures feature a three-step implantation technique that enables accurate sizing and precise placement of the implant.
