The VCFix® Spinal System is a revolutionary vertebral body augmentation system to improve pain control and stabilize the spine in patients suffering from Vertebral Compression Fractures.
VCFix® is a revolutionary implant for vertebral body augmentation developed by Amber Implants. We designed this product for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures. The product, consisting of a preparation, implantation, and an optional supplementary fixation kit, is intended to be used to treat and reduce compression fractures in vertebrae that have collapsed due to trauma, tumor, or degenerative diseases.
VCFix® is a revolutionary implant for vertebral body augmentation developed by Amber Implants. We designed this product for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures. The VCFix® Spinal System is intended to be used in combination with an approved bone cement, and to be placed, using a transpedicular approach, in a fractured vertebra with or without posterior fixation.
VCFix®: improving the treatment of spinal fractures
Better
stabilization
VCFix® provides pedicle anchorage to better distribute the biomechanical load on the vertebral body and the spine.
Reduced
operation time
VCFix® Spinal System includes a simple, single use surgical set that allows for an efficient workflow and a short operation time.
Optimal lifting performance
VCFix® expands in a craniocaudal direction, tackling the compression forces of the spine with up to 1200 newtons of expansion force.
Controlled
restoration
VCFix® implant comes in different sizes and has an adjustable angular expansion mechanism. This way, VCFix® provides an optimal fracture reduction and anatomical restoration for each patient.
Inducing osseointegration
Due to its optimized perforated structure and appropriate mechanical properties, VCFix® offers an ideal bone-implant interface.
Stand-alone
device
Thanks to its robustness, VCFix® allows for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures without the need for bone cement. However, for more severe and unstable fractures, the implant is compatible with cement injection.
