Nexxt Spine released the INTERTIA CORTI-FIXX Cortical-Cancellous pedicle screw system.
Here are four things to know:
1. The screws are used in the cortical bone trajectory, a medial to lateral pedicle approach.
2. They achieve greater cortical bone purchase with a small midline incision when used in the CBT approach.
3. Corti-Fixx implants and instruments are built on the Inertia Pedicle Screw System's foundation and offer an alternative to typical pedicle screw fixation.
4. The system increases resistance to pull out with dual to threads.
Nexxt Spine President Andy Elsbury said, "The Corti-Fixx screw further differentiates the Inertia Pedicle Screw System and provides multiple solutions for fixation in diminished bone quality through an open or MIS approach."
