Aurora Spine Corp. has added to its line of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) lumbar interbody cages.
Vox is Aurora Spine's modern, minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion system featuring TiNano titanium spray coating technology.
TiNano-coated polyether ether ketone—commonly called PEEK—cages will allow for the possibility of bone ongrowth due to its porous structure, according to the company.
The first surgery was performed by Daniel Williams, M.D., at First Health Moore Regional Hospital in Pinehurst, N.C. This is the first surgery using the Aurora Spine TiNano coated lateral interbody cage.
"I perform many lateral lumbar procedures each year. The Aurora Spine Vox system is easy to use and I believe the TiNano coated interbody cages provide my patients with a quicker path to recovery" said Williams.
The combination of the Vox TiNano coated cage along with the Zip Ultra MIS fixation implant make up what Aurora Spine officials market as the company's Screwless Procedure.
"Aurora is changing spine surgery," said Trent J. Northcutt, Aurora's president and CEO. "We designed the Zip MIS Interspinous Fusion System and TiNano coated interbody cages to improve spine patient outcomes, drive continued surgeon interest, and bolster our relevance as a key innovator in spine. Aurora Spine's minimally invasive Screwless Procedure is designed to provide unique benefits that deliver value to hospitals and patients around the world."
Aurora Spine is an early-stage Carlsbad, Calif.-based company focused on the spinal implant market through a series of screwless, minimally invasive, regenerative spinal implant
technologies.
