The C-TEK Anterior Cervical Plate System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of bone plates and screws manufactured from surgical implant grade titanium alloy as described by ASTM F 136 (Ti 6AI 4V ELI). The plates are provided in a fixed hole (C-TEK and C-TEK C-Thru) or slotted hole (C-TEK) design and are available in 1 to 5 level plates. The screws are supplied color coded identifyied by their respective lengths. Fixation is provided by bone screws inserted into the vertebral body of the cervical spine using an anterior approach.
Benefits:
Three Options:
- Fixed hole plate when used with fixed screws creates a rigid construct
- Fixed hole plate when used with variable screws creates a semi-rigid construct allowing for partial load sharing by way of screw rotation
- Slotted plate when used with either screw type allows full load sharing by way of screw translation
- One-Step Locking
Integrated slider provides single step locking of all screws without adding to the profile of the plate
- Low Profile, Narrow Width Design
- Contoured plates accommodate normal cervical lordosis reducing the need to bend the plate
- All screws angled 7° medial with superior and inferior screws angled 12° cephalad/caudal
- Variable screws allow a 10° variation in all angles
- Low profile design reduces soft tissue irritation
Wide Range Of Sizes
- 35 plate sizes in both the fixed and the slotted plate design
- 4.0mm, 4.35mm and 4.5mm screws available in 10-20mm lengths in both the fixed and variable design
