The insane path of two cervical intervertebral implants: late migration, esophageal ingrowth, and rectal excretion: an exceptional case report

This case highlights the importance of considering the possibility of migration of an artificial disc in patients who have undergone cervical disc replacement surgery, even if it has been years since the surgery. In particular, patients presenting with symptoms of hoarseness, dysphagia, or globus sensation and a history of cervical disc replacement surgery should receive at least one low-threshold conventional X-ray of the affected segments.
