ACF surgery is typically recommended for conditions that cause spinal cord compression or nerve root impingement, such as spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal), disc herniation, spondylolisthesis (slipping of one vertebra over another), cervical fracture, spinal cord injury, and degenerative disc disease. It is performed through an anterior approach, which means accessing the cervical spine from the front of the neck. After surgery, patients typically wear a neck brace for several weeks to ensure proper healing of the fusion. Physical therapy is recommended to strengthen the muscles around the spine and improve mobility. Recovery time varies depending on the extent of surgery, but most patients are able to resume normal activities within 6-12 weeks. Click at Anterior Cervical Fusion Surgery NJ
