Dr. Raphael Pratali successfully performed the first idiopathic scoliosis surgical procedure using Implanet's JAZZ Band in Brazil.

Here are five notes:

 

1. Dr. Pratali performed the procedure at Hospital do Servidor Público Estadual in São Paulo.

 

2. Brazil approved the use of JAZZ technology two months ago.

 

3. There are more surgical procedures with the JAZZ system scheduled in Brazil.

 

4. "JAZZ technology is an excellent alternative to screws in maximizing the correction of major spine deformities," said Dr. Pratali. "Using JAZZ implants in a hybrid construct in idiopathic scoliosis surgery makes it possible to restore the patient's sagittal balance."
