CTL Amedica’s detachable Minimally Invasive Flex Tower, currently in beta launch, accompanies the company’s Posterior Lumbar MIS Fixation Platforms. The system is designed with a proprietary, mid-tower, accordion hinge that allows the tower to bend and contour in crowded surgical sites, mitigating tab interference while maintaining construct integrity throughout the procedure.
The flexible tower is the first of many products that CTL Amedica has slated for launch in 2021. The company’s PICASSO II Minimally Invasive Pedicle Fixation Platform acted as the baseline for the new design, with many of the same features – a dual lead screw body, poly-axial function, a stability ring that prevents tower splay during implantation, 25mm of internal threads to aid in rod reduction, solid titanium construction and scored housing for easier tab removal. The flex towers are intended to support the PICASSO II MIS Platform and will be compatible with all future MIS systems.
