FS3 Facet Screw <strong>Spinal</strong> System<br />
Cortoss<br />
The FS3 Facet Screw<br />
<strong>Spinal</strong> System is a cannulated<br />
screw system<br />
that accommodates<br />
a range of<br />
patient pathologies<br />
through a<br />
percutaneous or<br />
open approach.<br />
Intuitive design<br />
allows for fast,<br />
reliable and reproducible<br />
access<br />
and implantation<br />
over a guide wire<br />
with minimal exposure<br />
and dissection,<br />
resulting in reduced muscle<br />
and tissue trauma. The partially<br />
threaded screw design maximizes compression of the facet articular<br />
processes while the washer applies forces to the bone to<br />
enhance stability. The double helical screw thread design allows<br />
for faster screw insertion without compromising bone screw purchase.<br />

Cortoss is an injectable, bioactive composite that mimics the<br />
mechanical properties of human cortical bone and the first alternative<br />
to polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) cement evaluated in a<br />
large-scale, prospective, multi-center, randomized controlled<br />
study used for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures.<br />
Data from the IDE study prospectively comparing Cortoss and<br />
PMMA show that the therapeutic flow and fill of Cortoss results<br />
in:<br />
• A statistically significant improvement in VAS score at 3<br />
months (11.6%, p
