The SEEplate cervical plate system incorporates features that are aimed at allowing surgeons an alternative to confirming the secure placement of the anti-back-out mechanism of screws used as part of the spinal implant system.
The SEEplate cervical plate system is intended for anterior screw fixation of cervical spine from the C2 through C7 vertebral bodies of the spine as an adjunct to cervical spine fusion.
Ashok Khandkar, CEO of Amedica, said: “FDA clearance of our SEEplate cervical plate system is another important milestone for Amedica. This cervical plate system will complement our line of innovative, silicon nitride ceramic spinal spacers, providing surgeons and patients with an important new option for spinal fixation.”
