NASS News: SI-BONE Features iFuse-Navigation Set and Fenestrated SI Joint Fusion Implant

SI-BONE, Inc., a medical device company that pioneered the use of the iFuse Implant System (iFuse), a triangular-shaped minimally invasive surgical (MIS) device indicated for fusion for certain disorders of the sacroiliac (SI) joint, announced its new iFuse-Navigation Set and proprietary 3D printed iFuse-3D fenestrated triangular titanium implant, will be featured at this year’s North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meeting in Orlando, Fla. The new iFuse-Navigation Set was designed to allow surgeons using the O-arm imaging system and StealthStation navigation system to perform the iFuse procedure for MIS SI joint fusion.
 
In addition to the new iFuse-Navigation Set, the company will also showcase its new iFuse-3D Implant. This novel implant combines the patented triangular shape of the iFuse Implant with a proprietary 3D-printed porous trabecular surface and unique patented fenestrated design which is intended to enhance bony ongrowth, ingrowth, through growth and intra-articular fusion.
 
The company will also be hosting Dr. David Polly, Chief of Spine Surgery at the University of Minnesota, on Thursday, October 26th from 3:10 pm to 3:40 pm at its booth (#1518) in the NASS exhibit hall. Dr. Polly will present and discuss his experience utilizing navigation with the iFuse Procedure as well as his clinical experience with the new iFuse-3D Implant.
 
“We are excited to have Dr. Polly join us at our booth and we’re grateful that he has offered to take time to share his clinical experience with the iFuse Implant System and navigation as well as provide his initial perspective on the new iFuse-3D Implant,” said Tony Recupero, Chief commercial officer at SI-BONE. “We have made great progress this past year toward advancing the diagnosis and treatment of SI joint disorders and we look forward to this year’s NASS meeting to help build on that progress and create even greater awareness about the condition and access to our procedure.”
