Profile: Orthotec, LLC develops spinal systems. Our products address the pathologies of the entire spine. Our spinal systems are recognized by neurosurgeons, orthopedic and spine surgeons. Our compression loads are shared between screw/plate fixation and interbody graft. Our Zenith™ is an advanced cervical fixation system based on a new concept. It is designed with surgeon input to respond to specific needs and the Zenith system simplifies & shortens surgery. Our SCS Spinal Clip System™ is designed to satisfy surgeons’ requirements for the treatment of different spinal pathologies, including deformities, fractures, tumors and degenerative spine. It is used for both posterior and anterior approaches. The wide range of implants optimizes fixation stability at the thoracic, lumbar and sacral level. It also provides the unique advantage of a bilateral clip introduction. Claris titanium instrumentation is specifically adapted to lumbo-sacral and thoraco-lumbar arthrodesis.

The company was founded in 1998, has revenues of < USD 1 Million and is ISO certified.

4 Products/Services (Click for related suppliers)

• Spinal Interlaminal Fixation Appliance (FDA Code: KWP / 888.3050)

A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.

• Spinal Intervertebral Body Fixation Appliance (FDA Code: KWQ / 888.3060)

A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct "sway back," scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.

• Spinal Pedicle Fixation Orthosis (FDA Code: MNI / 888.3070)

Pedicle screw spinal systems are multiple component devices, made from a variety of materials, including alloys such as 316L stainless steel, 316LVM stainless steel, 22Cr-13Ni-5Mn stainless steel, Ti-6Al-4V, and unalloyed titanium, that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of anchors (e.g., bolts, hooks, and/or screws); interconnection mechanisms incorporating nuts, screws, sleeves, or bolts; longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods, and/or plate/rod combinations); and/or transverse connectors.

• Spondylolisthesis Spinal Fixation Orthosis (FDA Code: MNH / 888.3070)
