CARLSBAD, Calif., Sept. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SeaSpine Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ: SPNE), a global medical technology company focused on surgical solutions for the treatment of spinal disorders, today announced the limited commercial launch and completion of initial surgeries of the Mariner Adult Deformity Pedicle Screw System.
SeaSpine continues to build upon the strength and versatility of its foundational Mariner Pedicle Screw System to address the unique clinical requirements of complex adult deformity spine cases. This limited commercial launch adds advanced reduction and correction instrumentation, specialized implant technologies, and robust osteotomy tools to deliver efficient and powerful surgical intervention.
“The Mariner Adult Deformity System is the culmination of tireless collaboration between progressive clinical minds and SeaSpine’s innovative product development team,” stated Dennis Cirino, Senior Vice President, Global Spinal Systems. “Combined with 7D Flash Navigation, this system is designed to deliver a highly accurate and efficient workflow without the requirement for intraoperative radiation.”
The Mariner Adult Deformity System incorporates the strength of Mariner’s modular technology to provide a comprehensive implant offering while reducing the number of surgical trays typically associated with deformity surgery. This reduced physical footprint results in more seamless workflow, limited operating room clutter, and reduced sterile processing costs to the hospital. Furthermore, this system expands the differentiated capabilities of the Mariner Gimbal technology to enable more efficient placement of complex instrumentation.
Dr. Pawel Jankowski, neurosurgeon at Hoag Hospital, Newport Beach, CA, stated, “The Mariner Adult Deformity System delivers on the goal to make the treatment of challenging deformity cases easier and more efficient. The robust instrumentation and versatility of Mariner implants, combined with the capabilities of the 7D Flash Navigation System, result in an outstanding workflow in even the most complex surgeries.”
