Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion

Relief from Neck Pain, Numbness & Weakness – Safely and Effectively

If you’re struggling with chronic neck pain, numbness in the arms, or weakness in your hands, you might have a herniated disc or pinched nerve in your neck (cervical spine). One of the most effective surgeries to relieve these symptoms is Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF).

At Sai Sankararao Brain Spine & Neuro Clinic, we specialize in ACDF, a proven, safe, and minimally invasive spine surgery that relieves pressure on spinal nerves and stabilizes the neck.

What is ACDF?

ACDF stands for:

• Anterior – the surgery is done through the front of the neck

• Cervical – refers to the neck spine

• Discectomy – removal of the damaged or slipped disc

• Fusion – joining the vertebrae to stabilize the spine

When is ACDF Recommended?

ACDF is commonly used to treat:

• Cervical disc herniation

• Cervical radiculopathy (pinched nerves)

• Degenerative disc disease

• Spinal instability

• Neck injuries from trauma
