After eliminating duplicate articles and screening by title and abstract 115 articles underwent full-text review. Of these, 15 were deemed relevant to the research questions posed. Evaluation of references identified 2 additional relevant articles.  \nConclusion: Evaluation of outcomes measures, radiographic analysis, and failure due to implant related complications is equivalent in comparing CDA to Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF). From the literature available, the outcomesin patients undergoing cervical disc arthroplasty are at least equal to those of ACDF. The concern for persistent symptoms inpatients treated with CDA due to the dynamic component on myelopathy is theoretic and not supported by the available literature.  \n1 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Dwight David Eisenhower Army Medical Center, Augusta, GA, USA  \n2 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University, Augusta, GA, USA  \n3 Department of Neurosurgery, University of Illinois College of Medicine at Chicago, Chicago, IL, USA  \n4 Department of Neurosurgery, Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, USA  \n5 Section of Orthopaedic Surgery, Department of Surgery, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada  \n6 Department of Neurosurgery, Haaglanden Medisch Centrum, Haaglanden, Netherlands  \n7 Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, McMaster University, Hamilton, ON, Canada  \n8 Sina Trauma and Surgery Research Center, Tehran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran  \n9 Medical College of Georgia at Augusta University, Augusta, GA, USA  \n10 Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada  \n11 Li Ka Shing Knowledge Institute, St Michael’s Hospital, Toronto, ON, Canada  \n12 Institute of Health Policy Management and Evaluation, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada  \nCorresponding Author:  \nUzondu F.
