NUBIC Specifications
The simple and efficient selection in cervical interbody fusion. Using an anterior approach and following cervical discectomy the NUBIC cervical implant is indicated for use in:
Intervertebral disc prolapse
Disc luxation or herniation
Mechanical instability
Calcification of the posterior structures
Osteochondrosis
Spinal canal stenosis
PEEK OPTIMA LT , a revolutionary biocompatible thermoplastic solution for in-vivo applications, is particularly suitable as an implant material. Since its introduction more than 20 years ago, the polymer has become ever more the material of choice for applications requiring outstanding resistance to chemicals, heat, steam, radiation and wear. While being all but totally inert, this polymer combines superior strength, stiffness and impact resistance while allowing excellent post operative imaging of the operative site.
