Long-term Results of One-Level Lumbar Arthroplasty: Minimum 10-Year Follow-up of the CHARITE Artificial Disc in 106 Patients
Spine, 03/20/07
David, Thierry MD - Conclusions: This retrospective study demonstrates the safety and efficacy of the CHARITE Artificial Disc at one level, either L4-L5 or L5-S1, in the long-term. Clinical outcomes and the rate of return to work were excellent overall. The rate of adjacent-level disease requiring surgical intervention was considerably lower (2.8%) compared with reports in the literature for lumbar fusion. As with any surgical procedure, proper indications play a pivotal role in clinical success
