Aurora Spine announced that it has received CE mark approval for its ZIP MIS Interspinous Fusion System, according to a company press release.

A posterior, non-pedicle supplemental fixation device, the ZIP MIS Interspinous Fusion System is intended for use in the non-cervical spine. According to a press release, the device is a plate fixation/attachment used to achieve supplemental fusion in cases of degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma or tumor. The ZIP MIS Interspinous Fusion System should be used with bone graft material and is not intended for stand-alone use, according to the release.

“This is a very significant accomplishment for the company as it moves towards commercialization and its planned launch into the European markets,” Trent Northcutt, president and chief executive officer of Aurora Spine, stated. “The CE Mark also paves the way for approvals of the ZIP MIS Interspinous Fusion System device internationally, meeting the company’s global mandate.”
