Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF)

This procedure is performed anteriorly in the neck to remove the disc between the cervical vertebrae to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves and/or stabilize the spine.

Once the disc is removed, it is replaced with a spacer that has integrated screws, or a separate plate may be placed over it.
