A retrospective review of 345 patients with lumbar TDR in two years follow-up over 10 years of practice in one Belgian clinical center : Results.

Low back pain is one of the most common symptom with high cost for the public health. When conservative treatment fails, patients are heading to surgical treatment. Instead of lumbar arthrodesis, we can offer an alternative that will keep the intervertebral mobility : Total disc replacement (TDR) by prosthesis. Many studies have published good results rate over 80%, since first implantation in 1984. Believing in keeping the mobility, we promote TDR since 2002. This retrospective study review 345 patients with two years follow-up. The outcomes show 81% of good and really good results, according to gain of improvement on VAS and ODI scores. We report 6.88% of complications for the abdominal approach and 4.57% for the device, without harmful complication. Same results are obtained in case of postdiscectomy syndrome.
