Abstract
The 3DF disc system is clinically suitable for human disc replacement arthroplasty based on the findings of long-term durability with dynamic motion in vitro and effective animal tests in vivo. This system surely overcomes the limitations of existing solid AIDs, and the clinical potential of the biomimetic 3DF discs has been verified. This new biomaterial technology delivers most of the functions and characteristics required by a clinically available AID if applied correctly by surgeons.
