More than 1,000 surgeons are trained with iFuse technology and more than 18,000 procedures have been performed over the past several years. iTotal CR and iUni from ConforMIS. e iTotal CR and the iUni are intended for total knee replacement and partial knee replacement surgery respectively. iTotal CR is designed to mimic the natural shape of the knee and it aims to minimize bone resection. e iTotal CR is delivered in a sin- gle, pre-sterilized kit before surgery. e iUni is in- tended for arthritic patients to preserve as much of the natural anatomy as possible. e technology is delivered in a pre-sterilized kit before the surgery. Intramedullary Hip Nail System from Orthopaedic Implant Company. e sys- tem aims to achieve optimal stability during hip fracture procedures, as well as fracture reduction and fixation. OIC's Intramedullary Hip Nail Sys- tem consists of short and long nails with a pre- loaded cannulated set screw, 10.5 mm lag screws and 5 mm cross-lock screws. e system features radiolucent carbon-fiber jigs that provide unob- structed views under fluoroscopy. InterFuse from VTI. e InterFuse Inter- body Fusion System is a modular interbody. It is a large footprint device that can be placed through a small unilateral access channel. e modules are placed one at a time and the de- vices lock into place in the disc space. e device can be placed through a tube system. LONGBOW Expandable Lateral Spacer System from Life Spine. e system is the first interbody device on the market that expands laterally in-situ for a direct lateral approach. e device aims to simplify insertion of bone gra aer expansion and may decrease retraction by as much as 45 percent compared to other lateral systems on the market. LONGBOW also aims to minimize tis- sue retraction and potential nerve damage associ- ated with the lateral access approach. Lucent MIS TLIF System from Spinal El- ements. Lucent MIS TLIF is a tubular retractor system designed to provide maximum visibility and surgical versatility. Its radiolucent tubes allow visualization of surrounding anatomy. Exposure tubes come in different lengths and diameters to match most anatomical variations. Key instrumen- tation is bayonetted with anti-reflective coating to improve surgeon visibility. e interbody implant includes Spinal Elements' Ti-Bond porous tita- nium coating on a PEEK interbody, allowing the implant to retain the imaging and load distribution properties of PEEK while taking advantage of po- rous titanium's properties at the endplate surfaces. Luna 3D Interbody Fusion System from Benvenue Medical. e system is an in-situ expandable PEEK-OPTIMA interbody implant that forms an ALIF footprint from a MIS poste- rior approach. Luna is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in adult patients with symptomatic degenerative disc disease at one or two contigu- ous levels from L2-S1. e device aims to provide anterior column stability, strength and fusion with minimal neural retraction. Luna features a generous gra window that allows bone graing material to be inserted post-expansion. MAGEC Spinal Bracing and Distraction System from Ellipse Technologies. e system is comprised of a sterile, single use spinal rod that is surgically implanted in the patient. e system also includes a non-sterile hand-held ex- ternal remote controller that is used to non-inva- sively lengthen or shorten the implanted rod. e rod is used to brace the spine during growth to minimize the progression of scoliosis. e system is designed for patients under 10 years with severe progressive spinal deformities. Marquise MIS Channel System from Amendia. e Marquise MIS Channel System is designed for easy sagittal movement through paraspinal muscle planes and improved access to the surgical site. e system enables minimally invasive procedures on obese patients and was developed to accommodate multiple instruments simultaneously. e technology was designed to reduce muscle ischemia/necrosis/scarring and improves visibility while reducing glare. Mercury MIS System from Spinal Ele- ments. Mercury MIS is an innovative, simple and versatile tower-based pedicle screw system. It is designed to limit muscle and tissue damage through a minimally invasive approach while ad- dressing the clinical needs of posterior fixation. e system includes multiple rod insertion op- tions, built-in reduction capabilities and simple tower attachment and removal, accommodating both mini-open and true percutaneous approach- es. e Mercury MIS System is a seamless, one tray add-on to the Mercury Classic pedicle screw system, enabling surgeons to use the same system for conventional or MIS techniques. Minimal Incision Total Hip Retractors from Innomed. e retractors are used dur- ing the Minimal Incision Total Hip surgical tech- nique, which aims to reduce the usual standard posterior lateral incision. e retractors expand the viewing area. is technique should not com- promise the component position, repair of so tissues, handling of so tissues or bone. Model 300 Secure-Fast ratcheting sys- tem from ECA Medical. e system aims to provide an enhanced ratcheting capability for se- curing screws, fasteners and connectors typically used in procedures spine, trauma and extremity implant procedures. e single-procedure ratchet is bi-directional and fully cannulated. It comes configured with either an industry standard AO or quarter-inch square hub connector that can mate with legacy stainless steel drivers and shas.
