7. The nuclear replacement of claim 1 wherein the tissue promoting material is selected from a group comprising: autograft, allograft, or xenograft of fascia, autograft, manmade polymeric fiber, talc, tissue promoting pharmaceuticals, tissue promoting minerals, tissue morphogenic protein, notochord cells and any combination thereof.
A number of artificial disc replacements have been developed. The currently available devices fall into two general categories: total disc replacements and nuclear replacements. The first category consists of total disc replacements that are made of rigid, inert substances such as metal and plastic. Examples of such devices are the Fernstrom “ball-bearing” and the LINK® and PRODISC® devices.
