Carlsbad, Calif.-based Aurora Spine Corporation’s Discovery interbody cage with plasma spray coating was used for the first time in human surgery this month. The surgery, a multi-level case, was performed at Tri-City Medical Center in Oceanside, Calif. by Neville Alleyne, M.D.
“The new TiNano titanium spray blast coating has increased the surface area for superior osteointegration. TiNano is the next generation of interbody fusion cages,” said Alleyne. Dr. Alleyne is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon and the director of the Orthopaedic Spine Center at Tri-City Medical Center. He uses minimally invasive approaches to spinal disorders.
The Aurora Discovery cages with TiNano plasma spray coating are designed to allow for bone ingrowth due to its porous structure. The surgery marks the introduction of the TiNano product line, the most recent addition of advanced spinal products in the Aurora MIS (minimally invasive surgery) portfolio. Aurora Spine continues to expand its product offerings in support of its mission of minimally invasive technology.
