Minimally Invasive Deformity Correction (MID-C) System
Details
Device typeSpinal rachet-distraction rod: An implantable, mechanical (non-electric, non-magnetic), metallic rod, capable of adjusting in length, designed to be fixed alongside the spinal column enabling periodic lengthening to distract the spine and provide adequate bracing during growth to minimize the progression of scoliosis. It incorporates a rachet-based mechanism that allows noninvasive, post-implantation lengthening during patient growth and/or correction of scoliosis (i.e., self-lengthens in situ). It is fixed to the vertebrae using two pedicle bone screws at its ends, which may be included with the rod.
