In a landmark achievement for spine surgery in North Karnataka, Dr. Vijaymahantesh Pujari, neurosurgeon in Hubli, has successfully performed a cutting-edge Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR) surgery—bringing world-class spinal care to the region.

 

 

🟢 Dr. Vijaymahantesh Pujari is the only surgeon in North Karnataka to perform Artificial Disc Replacement surgery — a rare and advanced procedure aimed at preserving natural spine motion and accelerating recovery.

 

Patient Case: When Pain Meets Innovation

 

A middle-aged woman presented with severe neck pain and unbearable pain radiating to her left arm. Despite prolonged rest and medications, there was no relief. An MRI revealed a pinched nerve in her cervical spine, requiring urgent surgical intervention.

 

Treatment Options Considered:

 

✅Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) – removes the disc and fuses two vertebrae, reducing mobility.

✅Posterior Cervical Discectomy – accesses the spine from the back but is not suitable for all cases.

✅ Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR) – removes the diseased disc and replaces it with an artificial one, maintaining natural spine movement.

 

What is Artificial Disc Replacement (ADR)?

 

Artificial Disc Replacement, also known as Total Disc Replacement, is a modern surgical procedure where a damaged cervical disc is replaced with a biomechanical artificial disc. Unlike traditional fusion techniques, ADR maintains the natural motion of the neck and minimizes stress on adjacent discs.

 

Why ADR is a Game-Changer

 

✅ Maintains natural neck movement
✅ Faster recovery than spinal fusion
✅ Reduces adjacent segment degeneration
✅ Minimal post-op bracing (no long-term collars needed)
✅ Surgery time: 2–3 hours
✅ Hospital stay: Just 2–3 days
