The artificial disc is inserted between the vertebrae to replace a natural spinal disc and is designed to preserve mobility and maintain flexibility. The procedure is an alternative to spinal fusions.
Dr. Mosa takes imaging tests and physical exams to pinpoint the patient’s diagnosis. He recommends physical therapy and pain management for the patients before recommending surgery. He works closely with Medtronic to develop several different products, including products for minimally invasive spine surgery.
