The SOLSTICE Occipito-Cervico-Thoracic (OCT) System provides rigid stabilization and promotes fusion in the posterior occipito-cervico-thoracic regions of the spine. The system contains easy to use implants and instruments that address simple and complex cases and unique patient anatomies.
The SOLSTICE OCT System incorporates a number of features that make the system uniquely designed to increase the speed, ease of use, and reliability of posterior occipito-cervico-thoracic fixation of the spine.
About Posterior Cervical Fusion
Posterior Cervical Fusion is a procedure intended for the stabilization of the cervical spine through a posterior approach. The procedure is commonly performed using hooks, plates, screws and rods as an adjunct to the fusion. Posterior cervical fusion is performed to treat instabilities which arise from: degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, fracture/dislocation, atlantoaxial fractures with insatiability, occipito-cervical dislocation, revisions of previous cervical spine surgery and tumors.(Source: Depuy Synthes)
