The present invention is an implantable cable and a process to manufacture said implantable cable. The cable is composed of a biocompatible fluoropolymer, in which biocompatible conductor wires are embedded. The entire cable is heat treated at various stages to ensure the wires are securely embedded. The cable is then undulated to enhance its pliability and flexibility. Further treatment activates the outer surface of the cable, following which it may be encapsulated in silicone.

La présente invention concerne un câble implantable et un procédé de fabrication de ce câble implantable. Ledit câble est constitué d'un fluoropolymère biocompatible dans lequel des fils conducteurs biocompatibles sont intégrés. Le câble est entièrement traité par voie thermique lors des diverses étapes, ce qui permet une intégration sûre des fils. Il est ensuite soumis à une opération d'ondulation destinée à augmenter sa souplesse et sa flexibilité. Un traitement supplémentaire permet d'activer la surface extérieure du câble, lequel peut alors être encapsulé dans de la silicone.
