RTI Surgical announces limited launch of new anterior cervical fixation system
RTI Surgical Inc. recently announced the limited launch of its Unison-C System, an anterior cervical fixation system. The system will expand RTI Surgical’s hardware portfolio into the standalone interbody market.
The Unison-C Anterior Cervical Fixation System is indicated for stand-alone anterior cervical interbody fusion for degenerative disc disease at a single level from C2 to T1. The system is indicated only for skeletally mature patients and consists of an intervertebral body device made of PEEK-OPTIMA from INVIBIO Biomaterial Solutions. In addition, the system has an integrated locking mechanism and two screws, according to a company press release.
“The Unison-C System is an exciting addition to our direct business spine portfolio that allows us to compete in the standalone interbody market,” Brian K. Hutchison, president and chief executive officer of RTI Surgical, said in the release.
The device does not need supplemental fixation, and is contained and secured within the disc space. It also features an all-in-one implant inserter and guide, according to the release.
