Anterior Cervical Discectomy is commonly performed for selected patients with cervical disc herniation or degenerative disc disease causing nerve or spinal cord compression. The surgeon makes an incision at the front of the neck, gently moves surrounding structures aside, and removes the damaged disc to decompress the affected area. The disc space may then be treated with fusion or artificial disc replacement depending on the patient's condition. Preoperative MRI or other imaging helps guide surgical planning.
