Abstract

Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) is currently by far the most used technique in cervical surgery. Arthrodesis is obtained with a bone graft or an intersomatic spacer generally secured using a screwed osteosynthesis plate. Implantation of cervical plate is time consuming and exposes the patient to additional adverse events which may require more surgery. To maintain the position of the intersomatic spacer and to increase bone fusion while maintaining dynamic compression, a cervical compressive staple has been developed.
