2022: Cervical Interbody Implant Announcement
On July 20, 2022, Nexus Spine announced the release of its Stable-C cervical interbody implants with integrated anchor blades. Dr. Kirk Clifford performed the first surgery using an implant at a Colorado hospital on July 12.
The latest Nexus Spine release complements Tranquil's growing line of interbody implants, which includes ALIF, PLIF, TLIF, TLIF-driven, DLIF and standard neck configurations. Tranquil is made of titanium developed using patented principles of a compatible mechanism to match the stiffness of the trabecular bone of the spine to ensure rapid stability and minimize the possibility of subsidence, the press release said.
According to the developers, the line of cage for interbody spondylodesis with fixing blades in the cervical spine is the first in the world. All cages have X-ray contrast titanium markers, which facilitates their correct positioning in the interbody space. Cavities are provided for filling them with autogenicity or bone-substituting material.
 | Integrated anchor blades are easily mounted in one step by simply rotating the tool that attaches to the inserter. I found this to be a big improvement over standard systems that use separate fixing components, adding time and inconvenience to operations. I have been using various configurations of the Tranquil product line for quite some time and got great results. Patients note early postoperative clinical improvement, and radiographs demonstrate rapid Tranquil integration and dynamic stability. I'm excited to add Stable-C to my practice, "said Dr. Kirk Clifford. |  |
Dr. Jeffrey Hoskins of the Dayton Orthopaedic Institute developed Stable-C to combine intraoperative ease of use with robust fixation. Tranquil mechanisms mimic nature by providing movement and force transfer through flexibility rather than traditional rigid compounds, allowing biologically pure synthetic materials such as titanium to act like surgically processed tissues at macro- and microscopic levels. Nexus Spine said the approach uses state-of-the-art mathematical modeling, 3D finite element analysis and 3D printing to dramatically improve spinal implants.[1]
