ECM Acquires Rights to Distribute Vertebral’s Interfuse System in Greater China

ECM Medical has acquired distribution rights for the Greater China region for Vertebral Technologies’ Interfuse System of novel spinal implants.

The InterFuse System is a modular implant that enables spinal surgeons to achieve an anterior lumbar interbody fusion footprint using familiar, less-invasive approaches.

The implant joins together through a rail-and-slot technique and is adaptable to each surgeon’s technique. Achieving the ALIF-sized footprint also provides the patient with optimal disc support, ECM says.

ECM, which describes China as a “key market,” will launch in Hong Kong and Macau during the fourth quarter, and in mainland China after regulatory approvals. — Michael Cipriano
