SPINE SURGERY

In spine interventions, both traumatic and non-traumatic injuries is often necessary to use grafts for replacing vertebral bodies or also incompetent discs in spine surgery. The most widely used are derived from autogenous bone fragments. There are several problems with these bone grafts: They require an additional operation on the patient, with greater blood loss and greater possibility of sepsis and pain. Postoperatively, may appear unstable pelvic, stress fractures, iliac muscle hernias, fistulas, ureteral injury and complications that cause a delay in rehabilitation. Therefore, the calcium phosphate implants have been used successfully in spine interventions in the last twenty years, verifying and demonstrating their strength, biocompatibility, osseointegration and ability to guide and facilitate the formation of new bone in the affected region, or what is the same, its osteoconductive capabilities. 

 

NeoBone

                       

 

Presentation:

NeoBone®, is a biphasic synthetic ceramic made of hydroxyapatite (75%) and tricalcium phosphate (25%) with interconnected macroporosity which allows the ingrowth of new bone. 

NeoBone® is available in many shapes such as granules, blocks and wedges.

 

Applications:

NeoBone® is design for filling bone defects. 

 

CE Mark: CE 0434

NeoCement

                        

 

Presentation:

NeoCement®, is an hydroxyapatite cement composed of a solid phase (tetracalcium phosphate and tricalcium phosphate), a liquid phase in powder form (citric acid and chitosan) and apyrogenic water. The solid and liquid phases are mixed to form a paste that sets in a few minutes. 

NeoCement® can be molded in theaste that sets in a few minutes. It can be molded in the desired shaped and applied directly in the bone defect. 

NeoCement® is presented in a package with three flasks containing, a solid phase of calcium phosphate powder, a liquid phase in powder form and apryrogenic water.

 

Applications:

NeoCement® ® is indicated for use in the treatment of small bone defects in craniofacial and trauma surgery. 

 

CE Mark: CE 0434

k-IBS

                                 

 

Presentation:

k-IBS®, is an injectable bone substitute composed of calcium phosphate granules suspended in a polymeric matrix based on chitosan. 

k-IBS® is a totally resorbable injectable gel, easy to apply and to mold into the bone defect. 

k-IBS® is a ready-to-use injectable bone substitute packaged in a syringe for an easy-to-use application.

 

Applications:

k-IBS® acts as a temporary osteoconductive scaffold for the ingrowth of viable bone. k-IBS® is not intended to provide structural support. 

k-IBS® can be used in applications such as:

·Reconstruction of post traumatic bone defects;

·Periodontal defects filling;

·Cystectomy filling;

·Alveolar bone filling;

·Osteotomies;

·Spinal surgery cages filling;

·Acetabulum reconstruction;

·Metaphysial fractures.

 

CE Mark: CE 0434

n-IBS

                                    

 

Presentation:

n-IBS® is an injectable bone substitute composed of100% hydroxyapatite nanoparticles. 

n-IBS® is totally resorbable injectable bone substitute and enhance bone formation due to its nanocrystalline structure similar to natural bone. 

n-IBS® is a ready-to-use injectable bone substitute packaged in a syringe for an easy-to-use application.

 

Applications:

n-IBS® acts as a temporary osteoconductive scaffold for the ingrowth of viable bone. n-IBS® is not intended to provide structural support. 

n-IBS® can be used in applications such as:

·Reconstruction of post traumatic bone defects;

·Periodontal defects filling;

·Cystectomy filling;

·Alveolar bone filling;

·Osteotomies;

·Spinal surgery cages filling;

·Acetabulum reconstruction;

·Metaphysial fractures.
