Bioflex System (Bio-Spine, Inc.) is a pedicle screwbased system which uses a Nitinol rod shaped with one or two loops intended to confer stability in flexion, extension and lateral bending. Nitinol is an alloy of nickel and titanium, commonly referred to as “memory metal” for its ability to return back to its original shape after deformation.
Bioflex System is no longer available.
The strengths of the rod shapes combined with the material properties allow Bioflex to convert abnormal motion segments into physiologic movement segments, preventing degenerative changes in the adjacent segments, and reducing instrument failures. The screw head has a design-specific advantage; it has two grooves, each of which is insertion spaces for the rods, allowing multilevel fixations and extension of the whole system in case of operation on other segments. This makes the system connectable, and due to the 3-D flexibility of the rods, natural lordosis is possible without bending the rods during the surgery.Bioflex semirigid stabilization for fusion technology Semirigid Stabilzation Strong support for better physiological bone fusion without stress shield Bioflex Dynamic stabilization for non fusion technology Dynamic Stabilization Preserving motion while stabilizing the segments during flexion, extension, lateral bending, and rotation.
