Korean Patent Publication No. 2007-0004656 (Implant lamination for spine fusion) includes various shapes that can be stacked to accommodate different intervertebral spacing and curvature, and the implants are made of a polymer-bone composite having osteogenic properties By choosing an appropriate set of features, in order to best fit the shape of the intervertebral cavity for a particular patient, the surgeon can adjust the overall shape of the implant prior to or during the surgical procedure .

According to these conventional patents, the internal structure for adjusting the height of the disc is complicated, so that the cost of the artificial disc itself is inconvenient, and it must be inserted anteriorly when inserted between the vertebrae, (Annulus Fibrosus) and remove most of the disc. As a result, minimally invasive surgery using minimal incisions is not possible with this type of surgery.

According to the conventional artificial disk, since the area occupied by the artificial disk itself can not be minimized, the incision area becomes wider, the operation takes longer, the bleeding becomes severe, and the patient takes a long time to recover .

In addition, since the height of the artificial disc itself is fixed, it is impossible to ensure natural movement of the vertebra while maintaining maximum lordosis when inserted between the vertebrae.
