Total disc replacement alters the biomechanics of cervical spine based on sagittal cervical alignment: A finite element study

Introduction: The correlation between cervical alignment and clinical outcome of total disc replacement (TDR) surgery is arguable. We believe that this conflict exists because the parameters that influence the biomechanics of the cervical spine are not well understood, specifically the effect of TDR...
