According to Integra LifeSciences, Coral extended tab spinal screws are designed for applications where the extent of the vertebral misalignment would not allow a standard sized tab pedicle screw to properly engage with the rod component of the system without using additional instrumentation. Extending the tabs makes this new series of pedicle screw particularly useful for the correction of spinal deformities, such as spondylolisthesis and scoliosis.
The Coral extended tab spinal screw series will be available in solid, fenestrated and cannulated styles in the US. The Coral extended tab spinal screw series is distributed through the Integra Spine independent distributor network.
Randy Theken, president of Integra Spine, said: “We are pleased to deliver innovative spinal solutions, led by a seasoned management team that has over 75 years of combined experience in the medical device industry.”
