This case presents a patient's perspective of clinical care and management of chronic pain with a psychiatric component, the latter of which was not initially apparent to both patient and services. It aims to understand patient's experience of illness (part A), its effects on patient's family (part B), experience of care from liaison psychiatry (part C), service provision for persons with chronic pain and its often-neglected mental health aspect (part D), and patient's hopes for the future (part E). Early involvement of liaison psychiatry may target the interaction between physical and psychological factors and provide appropriate interventions across the health-care system.

Spinal Surgery Team, Wirbelsäulenzentrum Ostschweiz AG, St. Gallen, Switzerland.
Background: The objective of this report is to present a case of two cervical spine artificial discs (Bryan Cervical Disk) that completely disappeared within 6 months as a result of a high-energy trauma more than 10 years after the initial surgery. Implant dislocation is a known complication in artificial cervical disc replacement. However, this report presents the case of an exceptional migration path with esophageal ingrowth and rectal excretion, not only for one artificial disc but for two at different times It highlights the need for long-term follow-up examinations after artificial cervical disc arthroplasty (ACDA).
