Advanced Vertebral Solutions
Advanced Vertebral Solutions is an early-stage, privately-held medical device company located in Philadelphia, PA. Advanced Vertebral Solutions first product, Advanced Vertebral Solutions STR Interbody Fusion System is a steerable lumbar spinal fusion implant that facilitates fusion of the upper and lower vertebral body. This helps to stop motion of the painful vertebral segment, which in turn decrease pain generated from the site.
The Advanced Vertebral Solutions STR I/F System represents a dramatic shift away from the difficult and time-consuming manipulation of the implant into the final position in the disc space. The new design of the Advanced Vertebral Solutions STR I/F system enables the implant to be articulated by the insertion instrument which helps spine surgeons and neurosurgeons to orient and position the implant into the spine rapidly and precisely.
Over the past 15 years, the global spine segment has grown dramatically. In 1990, the global market for spine products generated less than $100 million in annual revenues; in 2006, worldwide revenues in the spine market were expected to reach $3.5 billion.
