Orthofix Medical Inc. announced the full commercial launch of, and first patient cases involving, the Mariner(R) Deformity Pedicle Screw System. The first product launched since the merger of Orthofix and SeaSpine earlier this month, the Mariner Deformity Pedicle Screw System developed by SeaSpine is built upon the strength and versatility of the foundational Mariner Pedicle Screw System to address the unique clinical requirements of complex adult deformity spine cases. The full commercial launch adds advanced reduction and correction instrumentation, specialized implant technologies, and robust osteotomy tools to deliver efficient and powerful surgical intervention. The Mariner Deformity System incorporates the strength of Mariner's modular technology to provide a comprehensive implant offering while reducing the number of surgical trays typically associated with deformity surgery. This reduced physical footprint is intended to result in improved workflow, limited operating room clutter, and reduced sterile processing costs to the hospital. Furthermore, this system expands the differentiated capabilities of the novel "gimbal"
technology incorporated into the Mariner family of products to enable more efficient placement of complex instrumentation.
