Lateral X-ray image 1 day after surgery (a). Bony fusion around the PMMA 3 years after surgery in a sagittal CT scan (b) generation during the hardening of the PMMA, there is no necrosis in the surrounding soft tissue including the neural tissue. By using this technique with grouting of the intervertebral disc space, the surgeon creates an optimum, patient-individualised surface.

In the subacute phase and during rehabilitation after surgery, active elements like isometric tension exercises or complex motion exercises with good axial alignment can strengthen the neck muscles. If a cervical disc herniation leads to weakness of a certain muscle of the upper limb due to compression of a motor nerve root, it is crucial to train especially this muscle since dysfunction of arm or hand muscles has significant functional consequences. Patients with cervical spondylotic myelopathy often suffer from coordination disorders of the lower limbs; thus, special gait training during rehabilitation is necessary.
