The Black Diamond Pedicle Screw System is an intuitive thoracolumbar fixation system that is ideal for use in both degenerative and deformity operations. Vibrant colors make for simplified implant identification and in-situ visualization while novel instrumentation optimizes each step of the procedure. The system’s versatile implant and instrumentation options allow for use in a minimally invasive or open theatre to treat a diverse array of pathologies. Take a look at what gives this system its effects, flexibility and intuitiveness.
Benefits:
- Intuitive: Proprietary Diamond attachment notches allow for deliberate instrument engagement.
- Spondy-Ease :Additional locking cap threads give substantial reduction support for spondylolisthesis and minimally invasive procedures.
- Streamlined:Intelligently contoured instruments are geared for increased simplicity and less anatomic disruption.
- Robust:Sturdy proprietary Diamond architecture aids in precise placement and easy adjustments for challenging anatomies.
- Versatility:The Black Diamond Pedicle Screw System offers open, reduction, and percutaneous screw varieties making it versatile enough to be used in open or minimally invasive procedures treating both degenerative and deformity based pathologies. Screw diameters ranging from Ø4.5mm – Ø8.5mm with lengths from 30mm – 90mm allow for placement in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine in both midline and pedicle trajectories.
About Spinal Deformity
Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine that can occur in any age group. Scoliosis is a coronal plane (i.e. side to side) deformity occurring in children, adolescents, and adults. Symptoms vary with age of onset and severity of the curvature; cosmetic problems including sitting imbalance, breathing difficulty or delayed development is common findings in infants and young children. A rib hump, pelvic or shoulder height imbalance tend to common in the adolescent group. Intractable back pain, sciatica, leg weakness or numbness and gait difficulty are common reasons for surgical correction in adults.
Kyphosis is seen when a person’s spinal balance has moved too far forward to allow the spine to effectively carry the body weight without progressive deformity, pain or neurologic loss of function. Patients typically walk in a forward flexed posture being unable to stand up straight. This condition can also occur along with scoliosis causing Kyphoscoliosis.
