It is evident that surgeons and patients desire less disruptive options to treat spinal disorders, further accelerating our opportunity.”
Today, approximately 400,000 lumbar interbody fusion procedures are performed in the United States annually. The OptiMesh technology is the only in situ patient specific, expandable implant on the market. OptiMesh is delivered through the smallest insertion portal in the lumbar interbody market, and dynamically conforms to a patient’s unique endplate morphology, expanding to one of the largest implant footprints available. With unparalleled versatility, a single implant may be used for multiple lumbar fusion approaches accommodating the needs of each patient. As a result, this implant, delivered through an ultra-minimally invasive approach, is designed to provide patients with faster post-operative healing, and return to a high quality of life. OptiMesh is backed with IDE level data and holds the only De Novo Grant for spinal fusion.
“SV Health is excited to back this leadership team with deep spine experience, market insights, and a proven track record of success.” Greg Madden, Managing Partner, SV Health Investors who now joins the Spineology Board of Directors.
