The Blackstone Difference: Three Procedures, One System
The 3° Anterior Cervical Plate System simplifies anterior cervical
spinal fusion by addressing constrained, semi-constrained,
and unconstrained procedures with a single system. One set
of instrumentation and implants allows varying degrees of
constraint at the screw-plate interface. An innovative three-inone
fixed guide allows the surgeon to drill, tap, and insert
bone screw with a single instrument. Freehand guides are
also available for variable screw angle placement.
