Overloads of the spine often lead to the formation of degenerative changes. Additionally, the progression of these changes is led to instability and destruction of intervertebral disc structures. Therefore, the cervical disc implants are usually used as technical aids to improve the stability. The aim of the study was to assess changes occurring in the cervical spine, as a result of application of the cervical disc implants.
