    Area of Science:

    • Spine surgery
    • Orthopedics
    • Neurosurgery

    Background:

    • Anterior cervical fusion is a common treatment for cervical degenerative disc disease.
    • Cervical arthroplasty is an emerging alternative with comparable or superior outcomes.
    • Facet distraction during surgery can lead to persistent postoperative neck pain.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the surgical nuances of 2-level cervical arthroplasty.
    • To present a technique that avoids conventional vertebral body distraction.
    • To evaluate motion preservation and postoperative pain at 1-year follow-up.

    Main Methods:

    • The study details a 2-level cervical arthroplasty procedure for degenerative disease.
    • Surgical technique focused on avoiding facet distraction.
    • Follow-up included examination of motion preservation at 1 year.

    Main Results:

    • Good motion preservation was observed at the 1-year follow-up.
    • The described technique aims to prevent facet distraction and associated pain.
    • Comparable or superior outcomes to anterior cervical fusion are noted.

    Conclusions:

    • Cervical arthroplasty is a viable alternative to anterior cervical fusion.
    • Avoiding facet distraction may mitigate postoperative neck pain.
    • This technique demonstrates good motion preservation in 2-level degenerative disease.
