Spine Products
MIS Solutions
Zimmer Biomet Spine is committed to advancing and developing ground-breaking solutions for differentiated complex and minimally-invasive (MIS) spine procedures. Our MIS systems, including our PathFinder NXT® Minimally Invasive Pedicle Screw System and Alpine XC™ Adjustable MIS Fusion System, are backed by a legacy of clinical performance and offer enhanced procedural freedom and streamlined workflow for spine surgeons and hospitals. Zimmer Biomet Spine is committed to delivering less invasive solutions through intuitive and versatile implants and instrumentation.
Motion Preservation
Zimmer Biomet Spine’s cervical arthroplasty device, the Mobi-C® Cervical Disc (Mobi-C) is for both one and two-level indications. Designed to restore segmental motion and disc height, Mobi-C was approved after an extensive Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study. In the two-level arm of the IDE, Mobi-C demonstrated superiority in overall trial success compared to fusion at 60 months. Zimmer Biomet Spine is committed to advancing cervical arthroplasty as the standard of care in indicated patients.
Anterior Cervical Solutions
Zimmer Biomet Spine utilises its deep industry knowledge and expertise to refine a comprehensive anterior cervical product portfolio of next generation devices. The MaxAn® System is the only anterior cervical plate with a design rationale to help minimise the risk of adjacent level ossification1-2 and the Optio-C® System delivers a zero-profile, modular stand-alone cervical device featuring the DiamondTip™ self-drilling screw design. Our implants are designed to facilitate efficient, versatile, and reproducible spinal fusion procedures ready to meet the needs of surgeon and their patients in an ever-changing global spine market.
Posterior Cervical Solutions
Our innovative posterior cervical solutions provide a broad range of options and intuitive instrumentation to enable procedural efficiency. They include top quality products like the Lineum® and Virage® OCT Spine Systems and the Gallery™ Laminoplasty System. Our Translation™ Screw Technology is featured in our Lineum System and facilitates a simple approach to screw placement and rod contouring. And all Virage System polyaxial dual-lead screws incorporate 360° omnidirectional extreme-angle screw technology, allowing for 112° of conical range of motion, simplifying rod alignment.
Anterior/Lateral Thoracolumbar Solutions
Zimmer Biomet Spine’s comprehensive thoracolumbar products are engineered to treat spinal deformities, degenerative, and complex cases with clinical effectiveness, always with a commitment to patient safety. Our lateral solutions include powerful tools like the Timberline® Lateral Fusion System, which offers a 3 blade retractor, standard and hyperlordotic spacers, and modular plate/screw fixation options, allowing spine surgeons a wide variety of tools to improve patient outcomes. With its innovative technologies Zimmer Biomet Spine’s Durango® ALIF System is a modular, integrated plate and interbody system available in 3 configurations, with different screw positions and angles to tailor the implant to the patient’s anatomy and fixation demand.
Posterior Thoracolumbar Solutions
Zimmer Biomet Spine’s thoracolumbar products optimise performance during surgery while providing spine professionals a comprehensive product suite for long-term, one-stop solutions. The Vitality® Spinal Fixation System is an all-inclusive pedicle screw platform that provides surgeons with all of the vital components needed to execute rigid fixation of challenging anatomy in complex thoracolumbar spine procedures. Our Polaris™ Deformity provide an innovative posterior 3 dimensional spinal deformity correction technique that utilises the power of pedicle screw fixation to aid surgeons in effectively managing the challenging levels and varying anatomies inherent to spinal procedures. And our wide range of interbody devices includes the Trabecular Metal™ material and PEEK, lumbar fusion options, comprehensive instrumentation systems, and the Universal Clamp® Spinal Fixation System, which is cleared for paediatric use.
