K2M Inc., a spinal device company, has introduced two cervical products at the Congress of Neurological Surgeons in Washington, D.C.
The Chesapeake Cervical-Ti Stabilization System is a multi-screw construct providing stability to the anterior column while reducing the need for supplemental fixation in the cervical spine, according to a company press release. The latest addition to the family of Pyrenees Cervical Plate Systems, the Pyrenees Translational Cervical Plate has an unidirectional ratchet mechanism at each level to allow for controlled settling of the patient’s anatomy. Neither product requires an additional locking mechanism, as each screw head forms an autogenic lock to the plate upon insertion.
