Several cervical disc prostheses have recently gained FDA approval. Although arthroplasty has not been previously described in the thoracic spine, selected patients with long-segment fusion to the level of C-7 have altered cervicothoracic and upper thoracic biomechanics and may benefit from motion-preservation therapy for T1\u20132 disc herniation. Currently, FDA-approved prostheses are indicated only for patients with single-level degenerative disc disease between C-3 and C-7 and no history of cervical arthrodesis.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p>The authors describe a 52-year-old woman who had previously undergone C3\u20137 fusion and returned 4 years later with symptoms of C-8 myeloradiculopathy and radiological evidence of T1\u20132 degenerative disc disease. She underwent T1\u20132 arthroplasty in which a Prestige artificial cervical disc was placed via an anterior cervicothoracic approach. Motion at C7\u2013T1 and T1\u20132 was preserved, and the patient made an excellent clinical recovery.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/2010.3.spine09654","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,2,23]],"date-time":"2011-02-23T21:44:35Z","timestamp":1298497475000},"page":"240-245","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Upper thoracic spine arthroplasty via the anterior approach"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Krista","family":"Keachie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kiarash","family":"Shahlaie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.
