OXIS PLUS Occipitocervical fixation system

Overview

Instability at the occipitocervical junction can follow rheumatoid disease, trauma, tumour, infection or a congenital anomaly. It needs a construct that begins on the occiput and continues down the cervical spine. OXIS PLUS is a titanium posterior system. It links occipital plates to polyaxial screws, hooks and rods and extends to the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine. Movable plate heads, an angled occipital rod and a range of connectors let the surgeon build the construct to the anatomy in front of them.

Design rationale

Torque-limited final tightening

Set screws are tightened provisionally and then finally with a torque-limiting handle used through an anti-torque instrument. A tactile and audible click shows that the recommended torque has been reached, so the surgeon need not judge tightness by feel.

Indications

  • Instabilities of the upper cervical spine and the occipitocervical region caused by rheumatoid arthritis, congenital anomalies, post-traumatic conditions, tumours and infections
  • Instabilities of the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine: post-traumatic conditions, tumours and iatrogenic instability after laminectomy
  • Degenerative and painful post-traumatic conditions of the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine
  • Anterior cervical fusions that need additional posterior stabilisation
