Abstract
The present disclosure describes an intervertebral disk replacement system. The system can include a tissue-engineered intervertebral disc that is combined with a bioresorbable stabilization system for structural guidance. The system can prevent or reduce intervertebral disk implant displacement and can increase the stiffness when compared to the implantation of the intervertebral disk implant without the stabilization system.
