Study results strongly support the long-term safety and effectiveness of Centinel Spine’s prodisc® L Total Disc Replacement System for the lumbar spine.
The study expands the evidence of prodisc L and is one of the largest total disc replacement patient groups ever evaluated—demonstrating the robust long-term clinical success of one- and two-level lumbar total disc replacement (TDR) with prodisc L, as assessed at seven to 21 years postoperatively. A total of 1,187 patients who underwent lumbar TDR from 1999 to 2013 were followed. Until this study, lumbar TDR published evidence was limited to five to seven-year follow up.
According to the study, patients maintained reduction in disability and pain scores over time, with low rates of index revision/reoperation or adjacent level surgery when compared to long-term published fusion data. Total TDR revision and adjacent level surgery rates over seven to 21 years were 0.67% and 1.85%, respectively.
