West Chester, PA,September 7, 2022 /OrthoSpineNews/ Centinel Spine, LLC, a leading global medical device company addressing cervical and lumbar spinal disease through anterior surgical access, today announced the first implantation of its prodiscCVivoCervical Total Disc Replacement (TDR) product. In July, the company received U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval for 1-level indications for prodiscC Vivo, prodiscC SK,and prodiscC Nova. Along with the currently available prodiscCimplant, which remains the most studied TDR technology, Centinel Spine now has the broadest offering of cervical TDR solutions in the world to address surgeon preference and individual patient anatomy.

The first prodisc C Vivo procedure was performed in Dallas-Fort Worth, TXby orthopedic spine surgeon Jason Tinley, MD, founder of DFW Center for Spinal Disorders.

This patient had severe left-sided neck pain radiating into the forearm and thumb and a left C5/6 disc herniation, said Dr. Jason Tinley. Having the intraoperative options of a convex dome with spikes (prodisc C Vivo) versus a flat endplate component with keel (prodisc C) gave me the modularity to maximize endplate contact and stability, thus decreasing bone removal, risk of heterotopic ossification, subsidence, or implant failure. Ultimately, this allows me to best restore motion while also minimizing risk, Dr. Tinley adds.

Centinel Spine CEO Steve Murray stated, This is a historic milestone for the company, and we appreciate the support from our surgeon partners. Total disc replacement is one of the fastest growing global segments in all of orthopedics, and we continue innovating in this area to advance patient care. With our recent regulatory achievements, we are now able to offer surgeons a unique range of options to match the disc to patient anatomy.

The prodisc C Vivo system has been in clinical use internationally since 2009 and is currently one of the most frequently implanted TDR devices outside of the U.S. The device has keel-less fixation and combines a unique anatomically-designed superior endplate with lateral spikes to optimize fit and provide immediate fixation.Similar to all prodisc products, the prodisc C Vivo device incorporates prodisc CORE technology, the basis behind the predictable clinical outcomes of the prodisc platform after 30 years and over 225,000 implantations worldwide*.
