Surgalign announced the commercial relaunch of its CervAlign anterior cervical plate (ACP). This next generation plate design comes with an enhanced locking system and enhances the company’s position in the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) market.
CervAlign is designed for multiple ACDF procedural solutions, as it can accommodate semi-constrained, constrained and hybrid constructs for one- to five-level anterior cervical fusions. The plate features a 2.2mm minimum profile with zero-profile locking designed to minimize tissue disruption and complications, such as dysphasia.
Originally introduced to the market in 2019, the CervAlign system was one of the company’s fastest growing product lines. The next generation plate design adds to the company’s already robust ACDF portfolio, which also includes Fortilink interbody solutions with TiPlus and TETRAfuse technologies, Unison-C standalone interbody and additional plating solutions. The anterior cervical portfolio is complemented by the company’s posterior cervical solutions, which include Streamline OCT, one of the lowest-profile posterior cervical fixation systems on the market, and the Release laminoplasty system.
“We are happy to introduce an improved version of CervAlign ACP after an extended period of limited availability of one of our flagship products,” said Terry Rich, President and CEO, Surgalign. “We took the past year to evaluate the needs of the market and we are excited to bring the CervAlign plate back as we continue to drive better patient outcomes. While this ultimately hindered our 2021 results, it was the prudent move and in the best interests of our customers and patients who rely on our technology.”
