M-2 Anterior Plate System




Package Insert

Newly introduced in 1998, the M-2 Anterior Plate System is intended to be an upper thoracic complement to the University Plate System but it can also be used as a thoracolumbar plate in small stature patients. One unique feature of this system is that it allows for two types of construct assemblies: a 2 bolt and 2 screw construct or a 4 screw (all screw) construct. Construct configuration is a surgical decision that may depend on the pathology and related biomechanics, bone density, local anatomy and plate positioning, the relationship or proximity of hardware to vital structures or simply the surgeon's preference.

  • Titanium alloy
  • Anterior system consisting of plates, bolts and screws
  • Indications: T3-L3
  • Bi-cortical purchase of bolts and screws
  • Two types of constructs possible: 2 bolt and 2 screw or a 4 screw (all screw) construct
  • Used to treat single level or single motion segment pathologies

    This device is not approved for screw attachment or fixation to the posterior elements (pedicles) of the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spine.
