Indiana Spine Group

In a recent blog entry, Indiana Spine Group announced the FDA approval of the Bryan™ Cervical Disc. This cervical artificial disc, provides spine surgeons an alternative device for implantation when performing cervical arthroplasty. In 2007, the Prestige Disc received FDA approval. In a recent press release, Dr. Rick Sasso stated that “The Bryan Cervical Disc more closely mimics natural spine disc movement with shock absorbing characteristics than a previously approved device.”

Indiana Spine Group is excited to announce that we are one of the providers of this latest technology. At this time, physicians with Indiana Spine Group are the only ones using the Bryan Cervical Disc in cervical arthroplasty in Indiana.

Dr. Rick Sasso, a spine surgeon with Indiana Spine Group, was a principal investigator in the clinical trials for the Bryan Cervical Disc. Additionally, Dr. Kenneth Renkens was an investigator in this trial. Dr. Renkens is a neurosurgical spine surgeon with Indiana Spine Group.

Monday, June 22, 2009 by Justin:: The Bryan Cervical Disc holds a lot of promise for many patients. Hopefully, insurance companies will be willing to cover disc replacement surgeries with more devices on the market and more follow-up data from the Charite and ProDisc trials. -Justin www.SpinePatientSociety.org
