The M6 Artificial Disc is designed to replicate the anatomic structure and
biomechanical performance of a natural disc. Its innovative design incorporates
an artificial nucleus to allow axial compression and a woven fiber annulus
for controlled range of motion in all 6 degrees
of freedom.
M6 Artificial Disc Components
 |
Nucleus
• Viscoelastic polymer designed to simulate native nucleus
• Allows physiologic axial compression
• Retained between endplates & fiber annulus matrix
• Designed to enable physiologic Center Of Rotation |
| |
|
 |
Annulus
• Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene (UHWMPE) fiber material
• Intended to simulate native annulus & its performance
• Designed to provide controlled physiologic motion in all planes and
axes
• Robust fiber matrix with multiple layers similar to native annulus |
| |
|
 |
Sheath
• Designed to minimize tissue in-growth & debris migration
• Allows for full range of motion |
| |
|
 |
Fixation
• Titanium endplates with tri-keel design
• Titanium Plasma Spray (TPS) coated endplate
• Low profile keel height (2mm) |
First Successful Implantation of the M6-C Artificial Cervical Disc
in the United Kingdom
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.
