FDA has cleared a Foundation Surgical 510(k) for its Vertiwedge Intraosseous, a motion-sparing partial vertebral body replacement device intended for use with the company’s Vertebral Body Osteotomy procedure.

Vertiwedge is described as the “first intraosseous device designed to facilitate and maintain vertebral body correction of partially collapsed vertebrae via the groundbreaking VBO procedure.” It permits “effective treatment through a conventional lateral or oblique lateral approach and facilitates indirect decompression of the nerve roots while preserving the natural motion of the disc and facet joints without the need for intervertebral fusion,” the company says.
