Orthofix has released a new spinal deformity correction module for its Firebird pedicle screw system, which the company introduced last year, according to a company news release.
The new system is designed for treatment of patients with conditions, including scoliosis and kyphosis. The system's new Direct Vertebral Rotation device provides surgeons with the option to combine rod reduction and direct vertebral rotation in one low profile instrument. The device is designed for quick intraoperative assembly and disassembly.
The Firebird deformity correction module is on limited market release and is expected to begin full market release during the first quarter of 2011.
