Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion can be performed for a variety of pathologies but is most commonly used for the treatment of cervical radiculopathy or myelopathy. The procedure involves an anterior decompression of the disc space followed by interbody grafting and fusion. Supplemental anterior plating is commonly performed, and in certain circumstances, posterior instrumentation may provide additional fixation.
