At CET CONSULT, in partnership with Baskent Hospital in Turkey, we offer advanced disc replacement procedures designed to alleviate chronic back and neck pain while preserving the natural range of motion of your spine.

What Is Disc Replacement?
Disc replacement involves the surgical removal of a damaged spinal disc and the implantation of an artificial disc. This innovative procedure is designed to mimic the natural movement of the spine, restore normal biomechanics, and reduce nerve compression. It offers an effective alternative to spinal fusion by maintaining flexibility and reducing reliance on pain medications.
Pre-Operative Procedures
- Diagnostic Imaging:
We utilize advanced MRI and CT scans to evaluate the extent of disc degeneration and assess spinal alignment. This precise imaging guides our surgical planning and ensures optimal results. - Medical Evaluation:
Comprehensive assessments of neurological function and overall spinal health are conducted to determine the best course of treatment tailored to your condition. - Patient Preparation:
Pre-surgical counseling is provided to explain the procedure, expected outcomes, and potential risks. In some cases, a trial of conservative treatments such as physical therapy is recommended to optimize your condition before surgery.
Medication Adjustments:
Clear instructions are given regarding the adjustment or cessation of medications that may affect the surgery, ensuring your safety during the procedure.
The Surgical Procedure
Our highly skilled orthopedic surgeons at Baskent Hospital perform disc replacement with precision. The damaged disc is carefully removed, and an artificial disc is implanted to restore normal spinal motion and relieve nerve compression. This minimally invasive approach aims to preserve your natural range of motion while significantly reducing pain.
Post-Operative Care & Recovery
- Hospital Stay:
You will typically stay in the hospital for 1–3 days following the procedure for initial recovery and close monitoring. - Pain Management:
Customized pain management, including pain medications and anti-inflammatory drugs, helps ensure a comfortable recovery. - Rehabilitation:
Early mobilization is encouraged through a structured physical therapy program that focuses on gentle range-of-motion exercises, gradually progressing to strengthening and core stabilization. - Follow-Up:
Regular imaging studies and follow-up consultations are scheduled to assess the implant’s position, spinal stability, and overall recovery progress.
Activity Modification:
Patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting and high-impact activities during early recovery to protect the new implant and support healing.
