New Jersey Medtronic Prestige LP

Regain flexibility and comfort with this motion-preserving approach to cervical disc replacement at our Englewood office.

Medtronic PRESTIGE® LP Treatment in New Jersey

The Medtronic PRESTIGE® LP Cervical Disc System is an innovative treatment for patients who suffer from neck pain, arm discomfort, or mobility issues stemming from worn or damaged cervical discs. Rather than permanently fusing vertebrae and limiting motion, this system uses a specialized titanium implant to mimic natural disc function—flexing, extending, rotating, and bending to support a healthier range of movement.

We invite you to call our Englewood location to learn how Medtronic PRESTIGE® LP treatment in NJ may be the right solution for your cervical spine concerns.

An ACDF Alternative

Traditional surgical options for addressing cervical disc degeneration or herniation often involve anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF). While effective, fusion inevitably reduces movement by stabilizing two or more vertebrae as a single unit.

In contrast, Medtronic PRESTIGE® LP treatment in New Jersey replaces the diseased disc with a titanium implant that supports natural motion. By restoring vertebral height and cushioning, the device helps relieve pressure on nerves that can otherwise result in numbness, tingling, or weakness in the neck or arms.

Surgery

During this procedure, patients receive general anesthesia. The surgeon creates a small incision at the front of the neck to reach the damaged disc. Special instruments are used to remove the troublesome disc, and the PRESTIGE® LP implant is inserted in its place. Thanks to its two-part titanium construction and pivoting joint, the implant maintains a range of motion similar to a healthy disc. The incision is closed using a meticulous technique designed to minimize scarring.

Recovery

Cervical disc replacement is commonly performed on an outpatient basis, allowing many patients to return home the same day. You may be asked to wear a supportive collar for a couple of weeks to aid in healing, and our dedicated spine team will supply thorough instructions on pain management, wound care, and gentle rehabilitation activities.

Full recovery can vary by individual, but most patients report improved neck function relatively quickly. We encourage you to contact us today for additional information about Medtronic PRESTIGE® LP treatment in NJ and to schedule a personalized evaluation.
