Transverse Connector Cervical | Titanium
+ Description
The Transverse Connector Cervical, also known as a Cervical Crosslink, is an essential component of posterior cervical fixation systems. Constructed from medical-grade titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V ELI), it provides transverse stability between the left and right connecting rods, enhancing the rigidity of the spinal construct.
This connector helps resist rotational and shear forces, offering improved alignment and fusion outcomes in cervical spine procedures. It is typically used in combination with 3.5 mm cervical rods and is adjustable to fit various inter-rod distances.
+ Indications
- Posterior cervical fusion requiring enhanced construct rigidity
- Multi-level cervical spine stabilization
- Correction of spinal deformities (e.g., scoliosis or kyphosis)
- Revision surgery involving weakened or compromised constructs
- Cervical instability due to trauma, tumor, or infection
- Used bilaterally to bridge rods and reinforce posterior constructs
- Especially useful in cases with high biomechanical demand or deformity correction
+ Key Features
- itanium Alloy Construction (Ti6Al4V ELI) : High biocompatibility and strength Corrosion-resistant and MRI-compatible
- Rigid Crosslink Design : Enhances rotational and lateral stability of the rod-screw construct Minimizes torsional stress on fusion segments
- Adjustable or Fixed Length Options : Available in both adjustable and pre-determined sizes Can fit various anatomical requirements and patient sizes
- Low-Profile Configuration : Reduces soft tissue irritation Optimized for use in the cervical region with minimal bulk
- Secure Locking Mechanism : Locking screws or clamps provide a stable and secure fixation to rods Easy to apply intraoperatively
- Precision Machining : Ensures smooth engagement with rods and consistent mechanical performance
- Compatible with 3.5 mm Rod Systems : Universally designed to integrate with most standard posterior cervical systems
- ISO 13485 & CE Certified : Manufactured under stringent quality control for safety and reliability
