OWINGS MILLS, Md. , Aug. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- IZI Medical Products, LLC ("IZI"), a leading manufacturer of interventional radiology devices, announces the official launch of its Osteo-Site Vertebral Balloon ("Osteo-Site Balloon") for vertebral augmentation. The Osteo-Site Balloon completes IZI's offering of Vertebral Compression Fracture ("VCF") treatment options, which include Osteo-Site Vertebroplasty, Osteo-Site Balloon Kyphoplasty, Blazer Curved Needle Augmentation, and Kiva PEEK Implant-based augmentation.
"We want to enable our physicians to choose the most clinically appropriate solution for their patients when treating vertebral compression fractures," said Greg Groenke , CEO, IZI Medical . "We have created an integrated portfolio of VCF treatment devices with the ability to switch between different treatment options with ease."
"IZI has completed the VCF toolbox: Kiva for metastatic VCF's, Blazer Curved Needle for targeted cement deployment in sclerotic bone and blastic metastases, and now Osteo-site Balloon and curved needle for osteoporotic fractures. IZI has made it simple to switch between all of them which gives me intra-operative flexibility," said Dr. Kieran Murphy , Professor of Radiology at University Health Network Toronto.
The new Osteo-site Vertebral Balloon is designed to create a cavity within the vertebral body. Currently, the balloon is available in 10G and 11G sizes.
