OrthoFix’s Cervical Disk Approved

The FDA approved OrthoFix’s artificial M6-C cervical disk, the orthopedic and spine regenerative device company announced.

The disc replaces an intervertebral disc damaged by cervical disc degeneration and is designed to restore physiologic motion in the patient’s spine.

The device uses an artificial viscoelastic and annulus fiber design to imitate the structure of a natural disc and is designed to enable shock absorption.
