[Replacement of lumbosacral intervertebral disks using artificial prostheses: surgical tactics and technique].
The mail goal of the study is to present surgical technique of intervertebral disk replacement using artificial disks and to completely evaluate effectiveness of this modality of treatment of degenerative spine disease using a set of original scales, clinical data and neuroradiological examination. Since 2002 to 2007 14 patients underwent intervertebral disk replacement by artificial prostheses in the Department of Spinal Neurosurgery in Burdenko Neurosurgical Institute (Moscow, Russia).
