Dr. Jeffrey McConnell, MD of Allentown, PA was the first surgeon to clinically implant the SPIRA®-O device into a patient: “I have been a long-time supporter of the SPIRA® technology from Camber Spine, like other SPIRA® products this is a solid performer in terms of strength, ease of insertion, and I appreciate the surface texturing which encourages fusion between the bone and the implant. I see faster and more robust fusions in all my patients. Now that Camber has developed an implant that is specific to the anterior to psoas approach, I am able to access all levels of the lumbar spine from one patient position, and the SPIRA®-O instrumentation and design has enabled me with the ability to place deformity corrective sized implants in each level without the complications associated with utilizing risky orthogonal moves. This product is a great addition to the SPIRA® line and makes OLIF’s easier”.
