Check out the difference between minimally invasive and a spinal fusion below:
An alternative to cervical spinal fusion, the Mobi-C is a motion-preserving cervical disc replacement. 20-year data proves that this minimally invasive surgery results in an almost immediate resumption of activities, excellent symptom relief, faster recovery with less restriction, less follow-ups, all while maintaining complete mobility. Benefits also include less muscle trauma, less stress on adjacent discs which lowers risk for future surgeries.
- Downtime:
This is often performed as an outpatient procedure (meaning patients go home the same day after surgery). - Recovery
Around 3-4 weeks of restrictions on heavy lifting, immediate resumption of daily activities.
