BAK/C® Patient Guide
Using implants made from a titanium alloy that's safe for the human body,
the BAK/C® Cervical Interbody Fusion System provides stability
to the painful region of the neck by fusing the bone above and below the
degenerated disc. In a research study conducted 24 months after the BAK/C
Interbody Fusion System operation, 84% of patients felt relief from neck
pain; 80% had less arm pain, shoulder pain, muscle weakness, and numbness;
and 79% experienced improvement in physical and/or mental function.
Our patient information brochure can help you make an informed decision about neck surgery.

- Which patients might benefit from the BAK/C® system
