Aurora Spine announced that initial surgeries using the AERO Lumbar Fusion System have commenced.
The system is a novel, patent-pending device designed to provide a minimally invasive solution for patients suffering from facet joint-related pain or instability. Cleared for use from spinal levels C2 to S1 (inclusive), the system can be used as a stand-alone facet fusion procedure or as an adjunct to larger spinal fusion surgeries.
Engineered for earlier use in the continuum of care, AERO is suitable for patients experiencing mechanical back pain, minor instability or degenerative joint disease who have not responded to conservative therapies. The system incorporates intuitive instrumentation and implant technology designed to promote bone fusion while minimizing soft tissue disruption.
Trent Northcutt, President and CEO of Aurora Spine, said, “Initial feedback has been extremely positive, and we expect additional surgeons to start using the AERO in the coming months. Given the early interest in using this new technology, we have 10 kits available and ready for future lumbar fusion procedures.”
