Lindare Medical is pleased to announce the first successful implantation
of the M6-C Artificial Cervical Disc in the United
Kingdom. This first procedure was completed recently at Southampton
General Hospital by leading Consultant Spine Surgeon Mr. Nick Boeree.
The M6-C is an advanced generation artificial disc developed to replace
an intervertebral disc damaged by cervical disc degeneration. It is the only
artificial disc designed to replicate the anatomic structure and biomechanical
performance of a natural disc by incorporating an artificial nucleus and
annulus. Together, the artificial nucleus and annulus are designed to provide
similar motion and performance characteristics of a natural disc. The M6’s
polymer nucleus is designed to simulate the compressible function of the
native nucleus, while the surrounding multi-layer high tensile strength fiber
annulus is intended to facilitate a controlled and natural range of motion
in multiple directions. This physiologic motion is intended to preserve segmental
motion and possibly prevent or delay additional adjacent level degeneration.
Lindare Medical is pleased to be the exclusive distributor for the
M6-C in the United Kingdom. To learn more about the M6-C please provide
your contact information on our website, or email Mike Kyne at
