2 level limitation - Correction!
jss, I thought the FDA approved the Mobi-C for two levels in the U.S. How does TBI get around that and do four levels? Maybe it has to do with whether or not they are consecutive levels. Thanks for correcting my error. I checked my notes and did see one incidence where someone had 4 Prodisc-C ADRs (don't know surgeon) and 1 incidence where someone had 3 Prodisc-C ADRS in the U.S. (Dr. Chapman, WA 2008.)
