WAYNE, Pa., July 5, 2016, – Camber Spine Technologies, today announced the first implantation of the ENZA™ MIS Zero-Profile anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) device in a two-level lumbar procedure at levels L4/L5 and L5/S1 at Kennedy University, Washington Township, by Dr. Jeffrey Gleimer, D.O. ENZA™ is the company’s first device launched with integrated fixation to promote minimally invasive mechanical fusion.
“Today I implanted the ENZA ALIF device in a patient to replace two damaged discs. The brilliant design of the device has perfected true direct midline fixation within the retroperitoneal space for lumbar fusion. The ENZA ALIF cage far surpasses its competitors in providing a simple, easy to implant device with superior osseous fixation, even in significantly sclerotic bone, while also significantly reducing my operative time. I’m excited to be a part of the team bringing this device to the market and looking forward to improved patient outcomes across the country and hopefully the world!” – Dr. Jeffrey Gleimer, D.O.
The Camber Spine Technologies ENZA™ MIS Zero-Profile ALIF device is indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 Spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the treated level may be treated. These implants may be implanted via laparascopic or an open anterior approach. The Camber Spine Technologies’ ENZA™ MIS Zero-Profile ALIF is intended to be used with additional FDA-cleared supplementary fixation systems. ENZA™ MIS Zero-Profile ALIF must be used with bone grafting material (autograft only).
The ENZA™ product was developed under a collaborative agreement with the Institute for Musculoskeletal Science & Education (IMSE), an independent, full-service product development and engineering services company enabling medical device companies to expedite the commercialization of their technologies.
