AnnexTM Adjacent Level System consists of a selection of non-sterile, single use connectors manufactured from titanium alloy and cobalt chrome alloy, for attachment to an existing 5.5mm diameter rod construct to extend a rigid spinal construct. The connectors are provided in a variety of sizes and shapes to accommodate variations in anatomy and spacing/positioning of existing screw and rod hardware.
When used with pedicle screw fixation systems of the noncervical spine in skeletally mature patients, the AnneXTM Adjacent Level System is indicated for degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudoarthrosis).
The AnnexTM Adjacent Level System can be linked to 5.5mm diameter rod systems, including the CapSure® or Sniper®R Spine Systems.Annex® Adjacent Level System
