Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Spinal Implants

Background:

  • Cervical disc replacement is an alternative to fusion.
  • The Bryan Cervical Disc System is a novel artificial disc.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Bryan Cervical Disc System.
  • To demonstrate equivalence to anterior discectomy and fusion.

Main Methods:

  • An Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) trial was initiated.
  • Over 500 patients were enrolled.
  • Two-year follow-up data are being collected.

Main Results:

  • The Bryan Cervical Disc System is undergoing clinical evaluation.
  • Data analysis is in preparation for FDA submission.

Conclusions:

  • The Bryan Cervical Disc System shows promise as an alternative to cervical fusion.
  • Further data analysis will determine its equivalence to standard surgical procedures.
