cervical spine implants 3d model

Cervical laminoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord in the cervical spine. The procedure involves creating a hinge on one side of the vertebra and opening the lamina like a door, which increases the space available for the spinal cord. Laminoplasty plates are commonly used to maintain the opened position of the lamina and provide structural support during healing. Lateral mass screws are fixation devices used in cervical spine surgery to stabilize vertebrae and facilitate fusion. These screws are inserted into the lateral mass of the cervical vertebra and are commonly used in conjunction with rods and plates for multi-level cervical fusion procedures. In complex cervical spine pathologies, surgeons may need to perform both decompression (laminoplasty) and stabilization/fusion (using lateral mass screws) at the same vertebral level. However, traditional laminoplasty plates and lateral mass screw systems are separate devices that, when used at
