Modulift® S
Vertebral Body Replacement System
A simple yet comprehensive cervical VBR System that was designed to provide tactile feedback, initial stability, and sagittal balance restoration.
Advantages
Spikes provide initial stability.[1] The oval anatomic shape and waffle pattern increase surface contact while the central hole and fenestrations accommodate bone in-growth.
All these features are thought to work in concert to create a positive bone modeling response for long term fusion and stability.
- Easy handling
A one-piece design with built-in set screws and a state-of-the-art instrumentation system that simplifies the Modulift® VBR insertion, distraction and locking process. - Tactile feedback
Proprietary spindle surface treatment was designed to minimize friction of the internal moving parts which enhances tactile feedback. - Central drive mechanism
Provides symmetrical expansion to accommodate visualization of both endplates. - Sterile packed
The Modulift® Small VBR is a one-piece device individually sterile packaged for uncompromised patient safety. - Different footplates available
0, 5 and 10 degrees of curvature correction allow to accomodate clinical and anatomical considerations. - Attachment points
Allows for an efficient yet secure attachment point for both insertion and in-situ reattachment capability. The dovetail attachment and inserter alignment holes allow for a low-profile inserter thus allowing visualization of the dynamic expansion process.
Indication
- The Aesculap® Modulift® VBR System is used for partial or total replacement of a collapsed, damaged or unstable vertebral body in the cervical spine (C3-C7).
- The Aesculap® Modulift® VBR System is used with supplemental
spinal fixation systems. - The Aesculap® Modulift® VBR System may be used with bone
graft.
Surgically installed implants serve to support normal healing processes. They are not intended for use either as replacement for natural body parts or to bear loads over the long term in the event the healing process is incomplete or slow.
Use for the following indications:
- Fractures
- Anterior correction of spinal defomities
- Degenerative Disc Disease
- Deformities
- Degenerative instability
- Post-traumatic instability
- Spinal tumors
