Abstract
The 45-year-old female patient, professional dancer, presented in our outpatient clinic with right sided pain radiating from the neck into the complete C6 dermatome for more than 6 months. No motor or sensory deficit was found. The MRI of the cervical spine showed degenerative disc disease in the level C5/6 right sided with compression of the nerve root by a foraminal stenosis. Conservative treatments were undertaken without a lasting pain relief. The very well informed patient asked for an artificial disc replacement, which she considered important for continuation her professional dancing career
