DENVER SURGEON, MICHAEL E. JANSSEN, D.O., PERFORMS FIRST CERVICAL DISC REPLACEMENT SURGERY WITH PRODISC-C.
The Spine Education and Research Institute in North Denver, Colorado, has been conducting research on the most advanced technology for preserving motion of the cervical spine for the past five years. After extensive clinical research, the Cervical Total Disc Replacement (ProDisc-C) is now FDA-approved. Surgeons from around the world will be traveling to work with Michael E. Janssen, D.O. at the Musculoskeletal Learning Center for training and certification on the Cervical Disc Replacement Technology.
On January 16, 2008, Michael E. Janssen, D.O., became the first physician in the United States to perfrom two cervical disc arthroplasties using the latest FDA-approved cervical technology, the ProDisc-C Total Disc Replacement System. Read about the stories of Matt and Rose, the two patients who underwent this surgery.
The ProDisc-C Total Disc Replacement is intended to significantly reduce pain caused by cervical disc degeneration. This is done by allowing for removal of the diseased disc while restoring the disc height and providing motion at the affected vertebrae.
