NuVasive Inc. officials have announced the official opening of the company’s Tokyo office. The office will be headed by Takaaki Tanaka, NuVasive’s executive vice president of Asia Pacific, who has been with the company since 2009.

NuVasive has a presence in more than 35 countries, including eight international offices located in Europe, Australia and Asia.

“This marks an exciting moment in NuVasive history,” Alex Lukianov, chairman and chief executive officer of NuVasive, stated in a company press release. “I am especially pleased to formally open our Tokyo office. As a company, we bring a wealth of experience in spine, with proprietary innovative procedures like XLIF and procedurally integrated solutions. Our initial reception in Japan has been exceptional, and I look forward to working with Tanaka-san and Russel Powers, our executive vice president of international, to improve spine surgery in one of the world’s largest spine markets.”
