curasan Inc., the North American subsidiary of curasan AG, Germany, has signed an exclusive supply agreement with TransCorp Spine Inc., Michigan, for Cerasorb Ortho block forms used to repair vertebral bone channels created during surgeries to decompress neural tissue in the spine.

These block forms may be used in conjunction with surgical technique and an instrument system designed by TransCorp Spine Inc. that allows surgeons to achieve decompression of the cervical spine while maintaining the intervertebral disc. It is estimated that up to 40% of cervical decompressions could be treated with this technique. Initial clinical results show excellent outcomes. TransCorp Spine Inc. plans to commercialize the system this year.
