Device Description:
The FORTIS Anterior Cervical Plate System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of Main Plates, screw, lock-plate and the associated instruments. The lock-plate is pre-assembled to the main plate and designed to prevent screws from backing out. Each component is subjected to a color anodizing process to differentiate the screw type and diameter and to make the surgical process easy.
The plates range in length to accommodate one, two, three, and four level procedures. Main plate is available from 10mm to 112mm. Screws are available in lengths from 10mm to 20mm in 2mm increments. The screws have either a 4.0mm or 4.5mm diameter. They are fixed self-tapping, variable self-tapping screw, fixed self-drilling screw, variable self-drilling. The FORTIS Anterior Cervical Plate System components are supplied non-sterile, are single use and are fabricated from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) that conforms to ASTM F136.
