Human body finite element (FE) models are beginning to play a more prevalent role in the advancement of automotive safety. A methodology has been developed to evaluate neck response at multiple levels in a human body FE model during simulated automotive impacts. Three different impact scenarios were simulated: a frontal impact of a belted driver with airbag deployment, a frontal impact of a belted passenger without airbag deployment and an unbelted side impact sled test. Cross sections were created at each vertebral level of the cervical spine to calculate the force and moment contributions of different anatomical components of the neck. Adjacent level axial force ratios varied between 0.74 and 1.11 and adjacent level bending moment ratios between 0.55 and 1.15. The present technique is ideal for comparing neck forces and moments to existing injury threshold values, calculating injury criteria and for better understanding the biomechanical mechanisms of neck injury and load sharing during sub-injurious and injurious loading.

After anterior discectomy and decompression for cervical radiculopathy and myelopathy, cervical fusion has been the mainstay of treatment for decades. Ongoing investigation into cervical disc arthroplasty, with the goals of motion preservation and reduced adjacent segment degeneration, is occurring with enthusiasm. Understanding and recreating physiologic spinal motion is critical to these efforts and is an evolving process. Prospective randomized United States Food and Drug Administration regulated trials are now available for several devices with promising short-term and mid-term results. Long-term data are awaited with anticipation regarding the clinical, radiographic, and quality-based outcome measures. Ultimately, the decision to incorporate cervical disc arthroplasty into day-today practice will stem largely from the clinical outcome of the procedure, the long-term durability of the device, and the incidence of symptomatic adjacent segment degeneration, as compared with arthrodesis.

“…Cervical disc arthroplasty devices have been developed as an alternative to fusion techniques, with the aim of preserving motion and diminishing the rate of ASD acceleration 1. However, little is known as to whether Total Disc Replacement (TDR) is also effective in the treatment of the degenerated disc adjacent to a prior fusion, especially in patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) who have “cod-fish” narrow vertebrae with resulting small endplates.…”

Cervical arthroplasty may be justified in patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) in order to preserve cervical motion. The aim of this paper is to report an arthroplasty failure in a patient with KFS. A 36-year-old woman with KFS underwent two-level arthroplasty for adjacent segment disc degeneration. Anterior migration of the cranial prosthesis was encountered 5 months postoperatively and was successfully revised with anterior cervical fusion. Cervical arthroplasty in an extensively stiff and fused neck is challenging and may lead to catastrophic failure. Although motion preservation is desirable in KFS, the special biomechanical features may hinder arthroplasty. Fusion or hybrid constructs may represent more reasonable options, especially when multiple fused segments are present.
