03 Ortholox Spinal Band Animation

Ortholox® UHMWPE Spinal Posterior Fixation System is manufactured from Medical Degree Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene material. For Ortholox® UHMWPE Spinal Posterior Fixation System, very thin fibers are woven in the form of bands with a width of 3 mm (cervical) and 5 mm to form a multifilament material. *By means of its wide cross section, it eliminates single-point stress. *Pressure on lamina is distributed and thus decreased thanks to the wide surface of the band. *By means of its wide surface, it is more reliable in osteoporotic bones when compared to pedicle screws or hooks. *Each band has a load carrying capacity of over 1600 N. (8 bands=12800 N) *Thanks to the blunt tip of the bendable titanium guide strip that pre-assembled at the end of the band, it does not damage the soft tissue, and does not pose a threat for the surgeon during the procedure. *It does not cause damage to lamina structure as the metal wires during and after surgery. *It is suitable for use in patients on whom the use of screws is risky and who have thin pedicle anatomy. *It minimises metal corrosion in bone structure. *Since it has tulips for use with rods of different diameters, it is compatible with almost all different titanium or CoCr posterior spinal screw-hook-rod systems existing at hospitals. Ortholox® UHMWPE Spinal Posterior Fixation System is highly flexible, it can be manipulated easily. *It does not lead to complications resulting from tearing and breakage since it has a higher elastic modulus when compared to titanium or CoCr cables and sublaminar wires. *Its flexible structure ensures a long-term dynamic compression. *It has a high load carrying capacity. *Since the bands are manufactured from UHMWPE material, they are radiolucent and thus, they do not cause artifact in post-operational MRI follow-up and the position of the vertebral column and the process for the union of the fracture, if any, can be followed-up more easily in the post-operational x-ray.
