MOVE®-C cervical artificial disc replacement
NONNWEILER, SAARLAND, GERMANY, November 14, 2023 /OrthoSpineNews/ — NGMedical GmbH, a medical device manufacturer focused exclusively on creating innovative technologies for spinal applications, announces the first implantation of its MOVE®-C cervical artificial disc replacement in Taiwan.
MOVEMENT®-C combines the features of a second-generation viscoelastic disc prosthesis with the simple implantation technique of a cervical cage. The prosthesis provides physiological movement in all six planes, including axial damping with progressive movement resistance. MOVEMENT®-C is the first prosthesis with additively manufactured titanium end plates and avoids the use of PE.
“The first implantation of our MOVE®-C cervical artificial disc replacement in Taiwan marks another important milestone for NGMedical. The market launch in Taiwan is the next step in the global commercialization of our MOVE®-C artificial disc prosthesis. Taiwan is a very active spine market and we are proud to see how MOVE®-C is even more widely used and accepted by experienced spine surgeons in many countries.” says Peter Weiland, CEO of NGMedical.
