Dr Ritter-Lang was trained and specialized in the spine department of
the University Hospital Charité in Berlin - the hospital that pioneered the SB Charite I-III, together with Waldemar Link, the company that
developed the
artificial disc implant. He
has over 10 years
of experience with ADR surgery, including many complex multi-disc procedures,
and has already implanted close to 1000 Artificial Disc's, and has done over
3000 abdominal approaches to the spine.
It is well known, throughout the world, that
the Germans are leaders in the area of orthopedic medicine, and Dr Ritter-Lang
and his team are some of the most experienced in Germany.

The spine is a complex organ, and the front
approach of the lumbar ADR procedure involves vital organs. Only the most experienced
surgeons in Germany are performing this procedure. This insures a great level of
success, with limited complications.
"General complications in Artificial Disc Replacement are
infections. Specific complications:
intraoperative injury of structures (vessels, nerves, ureter), which are of
consequence to the patient (e.g. repeat operations, paralysis, septic
complications), of which we have had very few instances to date"
