The UFO cervical dynamic intervertebral spacer is positioned somewhere in between the traditional fusion cage and artificial disc. It can effectively restore the disc height and provide the cervical vertebrae appropriate mobility. With the properties of the materials applied, the stability of the fusion cage and the motion preservation of the artificial disc can be well integrated. The elasticity of the UFO can evenly share the loading when the cervical vertebrae moves and the porous surface treatment of the titanium alloy dome can further increase the stability after it’s implanted.

  • Simple implantation
  • Damping function
  • Keep natural range of motion forever
  • Stresses decentralization
  • Press fit the disc space
  • Initial stability obtained
  • Fusion keep in position
  • Less sinking problem

Stability
Stresses decentralization
Reduced stresses at the disc.
Dynamic loads
Prevent the disc overloading and the functional facet-syndrome adjacent to the arthrodesis.
Easy surgery
Easy implantation, similar surgical technique to the one for fusion cage. Initial stability can be achieved through the fit in place of the upper and lower convex dome.


Dynamic spacer
Provides a natural range for the vertebrae moving.
Metallic dome shape design
Radiopaque.
Convex upper and lower dome prevent from dislocation. Porous surface treatment facilitate bone fusion.
Damping control
Central harder core structure can absorb the stress loading.
Free-angle motion
Enables a non-constrained range of motion for lateral bending, Flexion/Extension, and axial rotation. Elastic outer ring can be the buffer of the loading during Flexion/Extension, and lateral bending while maintaining the disc space unchanged.


Easy Surgery
Easy implantation, similar surgical technique to the one for fusion cage. Initial stability can be achieved through the fit in place of the upper and lower convex dome.

Implantation of the UFO in 4 steps:
1. Initial approach & discectomy.
2. Trial insertion and sizing.
3. Endplate concave dome preparation.
4. Implantation.
