Description:
Endoskeleton® Series of Interbody Fusion and Vertebral Body Replacement Devices by Titan Spine Inc.
Titan Spine Inc.'s Endoskeleton® series offers a comprehensive solution for spine stability and fusion restoration. The series includes TA, TAS, TO, TT, TC, TCS, TL Interbody Fusion Devices, and TA Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) Device, each designed to address specific clinical needs.
Primary Use:
These devices serve as a primary tool in spinal fusion surgeries, aiming to restore the natural disc height and providing immediate structural support. Interbody fusion devices act as a bridge, facilitating fusion, while the TA Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) Device is primarily used when a damaged vertebra needs to be replaced.
Key Benefits:
The Endoskeleton® series offers surgeons several essential benefits. The devices are carefully structured to promote optimal fusion environment by encouraging natural bone growth. Furthermore, their unique design allows for a large graft window, enhancing visibility and improving the ease of insertion. Additionally, each device within the series is made from medical-grade, biocompatible titanium, known for its durability, strength, and compatibility with imaging technology.
Their effectiveness stems from an understanding of the inherent complexity and functionality of the human spinal structure, mirroring these nuanced biomechanics to aid patient-centered care. The Endoskeleton® series provides physicians with reliable, high-quality, and specialized devices to advance toward achieving optimal patient outcomes.
Primary Use:
Endoskeleton® Series Interbody Fusion Devices and Vertebral Body Replacement Device
The Endoskeleton® series Interbody Fusion Devices and the Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) device are state-of-the-art medical equipment, specifically designed for facilitating spinal fusion surgeries. They belong to the Orthopedic Implants category.
Primary Medical Uses
These devices predominantly assist in the medical treatment of a range of spinal pathological conditions.
- Endoskeleton® TA, TAS, TO, TT, TC, TCS, TL Interbody Fusion Devices: These are intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. They are used to treat degenerative disc disease (DDD) defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.
- Endoskeleton® TA Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) Device: This device is designed for use in the thoracolumbar spine to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body caused due to tumor or trauma. It provides anterior spinal column support, facilitating stabilization and fusion at the operative site.
Achieving Spinal Stability
The Endoskeleton® series Interbody Fusion Devices and Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) devices are designed to stabilize and support the spine's structure. This is particularly crucial after spinal surgeries where portions of a deteriorating spinal disc have been removed, and the stability needs to be restored. The devices serve as an ideal scaffold for bone growth promoting bone fusion across the replaced disc space, and often they contain graft material to facilitate the fusion process.
Qualified medical professionals seeking a robust solution for complex spinal conditions requiring surgical intervention will find the Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion and Vertebral Body Replacement devices an excellent addition to their medical armamentarium.
How It Works:
Understanding the Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion Device Series
Using the Endoskeleton® series of interbody fusion devices significantly improves the outcome of critical orthopedic procedures as these devices aide in the realignment and stabilization of the human spine. Through the utilization of these FDA-approved devices, doctors have witnessed notable improvements in patients' recovery rate and overall surgical outcomes.
Working Mechanism of Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion Devices
The Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion Devices work by creating a stable, load-bearing framework that enables the natural fusion of vertebrae. Specifically, they are inserted between the vertebrae to aid in alignment and reduce pressure on the nerves and spinal cord.
Material Composition
These devices are predominantly made of titanium, known for its strength, lightweight properties, and biocompatibility.
Titanium is an optimal choice for surgical implants because of its ability to withstand significant stress under physiological conditions without causing adverse biological reactions.
Design Parameter
The design of these fusion devices facilitates optimal bone graft packing and endplate preparation, thus providing additional stability to the spine. The unique structure allows for natural bone growth, ultimately leading to successful intervertebral fusion.
Types of Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion Devices
1. Endoskeleton® TA Interbody Fusion Device
The
Endoskeleton® TA Interbody Fusion Device uses a unique anterior approach to incorporate both interbody and anterior column support.
2. TAS, TO, TT, TC, and TCS Interbody Fusion Devices
These variants of the Endoskeleton® Interbody Fusion Devices offer a different range of sizes, heights, and angle choices to tailor the device to an individual patient’s anatomical requirements.
3. Endoskeleton® TL Interbody Fusion Device
The
Endoskeleton® TL Interbody Fusion Device follows a lateral approach, allowing for the restoration and maintenance of sagittal balance.
4. Endoskeleton® TA Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) Device
This device is specifically designed to replace a collapsed, damaged or unstable vertebral body, maintaining the patency of the neural canal.
In conclusion, these Endoskeleton® series of interbody fusion devices have revolutionized orthopedic surgery and continue to help health practitioners globally to improve their patients' quality of life.
