In March, Xtant Medical said its X-Spine Systems subsidiary won FDA 510(k) clearance for its Xspan laminoplasty fixation system designed for use in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine.

Spinal laminoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to remove pressure from the spinal cord through the restructuring of the lamina through a window or opening to allow the spinal canal to increase in size without losing stability or movement.

Xtant Medical said its Xspan will be available to a “limited number of key surgeons” in the 2nd fiscal quarter of 2016 with a larger general release to follow later in 2016. The company said the worldwide market for laminoplasty is estimated to be $110 million “and growing”.

Earlier in March, Xtant Medical said it won CE Mark approval in the European Union for its Aranax cervical plating system and and Irix-A stand alone anterior lumbar fusion device.

The company’s Aranax cervical plating system is distributed as a pre-sterilized, ready-to-use implant. The Irix-A stand alone anterior lumbar fusion device consists of an integrated titanium ring in a PEEK shell.
