“…C. acnes specific culturing may explain why discs removed from patients with previous and more extensive surgery had higher rates of positive bacterial culture [58]. Moderately high rates of positive bacterial samples were obtained from discs (17%), (comparable with other studies reporting disc bacteria; see Table 1.), yet almost half muscle control specimens were positive for bacteria [58]. No bacterial differences were found between case degenerate and control discs [58].…”

“…The largest disc infection investigation to date collected samples from 812 participants. Contamination (muscle) control samples along with disc samples were taken from disc degenerative (case) and non-degenerative (control) participants [ 58 ]. Significantly higher rates of bacteria were cultured from control group samples of muscle and disc (48%) than degenerate disc samples (17%) [ 58 ].…”

“…All M6-C disc retrievals showed evidence of wear and there was Propionibacterium acnes detected. A subsequent study by Mobbs suggest this may have been a contaminant [32].…”

“…The retrieval analysis revealed macroscopic disc failure and histologic evidence of wear induced osteolysis around the revised M6-C prosthesis raising significant concerns regarding durability of this device. Bacteriological contamination was not detected [32].…”
