Summary

This study tests a new artificial disc (Synergy Disc) for people with neck pain from a worn-out disc in the neck. It compares the disc to standard surgery that fuses the bones together. About 175 adults with one-level neck disc disease will be followed for 2 years to see if the new disc is as safe and effective.
