A Pilot Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion using a Patient Customized Bio-ceramic Cage

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue
Registration Number
KCT0003984
Lead Sponsor
Yonsei University Health System, Gangnam Severance Hospital
Brief Summary

The initial application success rate after surgery, the primary endpoint, was 100%, and all 7 cases showed a perfect anatomical match between the cervical endplate and clinical medical device. The secondary endpoint confirmed no subsidence or failure of the clinical medical device occurred. So all users rated it as 'very satisfied. However, only three patients visited at 1, 3, and 6 months, one at 1 and 3 months, and one at a month, and the rest didn't. It was a bit disappointing in the evaluation.
