Three insights:

1. The V3 system was developed to compliment the company’s HiJAK AC — an expandable cervical interbody — that was launched in March.

2. The device promotes the use of less invasive, individual plates for multi-level constructs, decreasing the dissection and retraction required to perform an ACDF.

3. The V3 system, combined with HiJAK — which offers adjustable lordosis up to 20 degrees — enables surgeons to address each diseased segment individually.
