Peter gets the use of his right hand and arm back after ACDF cervical decompression surgery of his spinal cord with Dr. Lloyd Hey

Peter had a severe pinch on his spinal cord caused by a cervical disc herniation in his neck. He had progressive muscle atrophy and weakness in that hand and arm, and had to stop playing golf, and had increasing trouble with fine motor function, including writing with a pen.
He is now a few weeks out after his anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF) with anterior plate, and is now doing very well. His strength, including pinch strength began to get better immediately in the hospital, which he showed us on rounds on postop day 1 at Duke Raleigh Hospital.
He gives a brief video interview here.
