Spine

Stephen Courtney, MD, a spine surgeon with Plano (Texas) Orthopedic Sports Medicine & Spine Center, has performed the first lateral lumbar plate surgery with Eminent Spine’s Black Diamond Rattlesnake implant system.

The surgery was performed on Oct. 27. Dr. Courtney has now successfully implanted the FDA-cleared system in three patients.

 

“Eminent Spine has developed a lateral plating system that provides immediate fixation…The beauty of the plate system is that the technology is designed into the implant system, therefore saving operating room time,” said Dr. Courtney.
