BAGUERA® C
Cervical disc prosthesis

Now FDA Approved

BAGUERA® C is proven to preserve long-term mobility and function in the cervical spine. Designed in Switzerland, BAGUERA® C is intended to treat patients suffering from symptomatic cervical disc disease at one or two adjacent levels between C3 and C7.

Anatomical design

Tapered axial footprints are deisgned to fit between the uncinate processes. Sagital curvature of the superior endplate to better match typical superior vertebral body anatomy. Built-in lordosis upon implantation is intended to fit the disc space and help to restore native lordosis.

Vitamin-E blended PE

BAGUERA® C is the first cervical disc prosthesis to introduce Vitamin E blended highly cross-linked PE (AO-XLPE), proven to improve implant longevity in orthopaedics.

Reduced MRI Artifact

The titanium endplates enhance MRI visibility compared to other common metal alloys.

Not made with Nickel

BAGUERA® C is not made with Nickel, Cobalt or Chromium, common metal allergens.

Additional features

Better stress distribution

Optimized stress distribution and load sharing capabilities from a patented core and endplate design, intended to mimic native biomechanics and improve wear performance.

Low wear

Patented nucleus design made from Vitamin E blended XLPE to improve wear performance . DLC coated endplates reduce friction and enhance wear performance by over 80% when articulating on UHMWPE

Mobile nucleus

Designed to preserve facet joint kinematics, BAGUERA® C is semi-constrained and allows for both independent and coupled motion. Consistent rand of motion is achieved by size-specific endplates articulating on a common core.

Radiolucent holder

BAGUERA® C is pre-assembled on a patented radiolucent holder for easy one-step implantation and unobstructed lateral visualization.

Primary stability

The 3 upper and 3 lower fins as well as the porous titanium coating are designed for primary and secondary stability.

Complete range

The prosthesis is available in 3 footprints, Small (D13xW16 mm), Medium (D14xW17 mm) and Large (D16xW18 mm) and 3 heights from 5 to 7 mm.
The set includes 4 instruments, trials and a lockable cervical distractor.
