Biedermann Motech has announced the selective market introduction of the MOSS EOS System, a groundbreaking modular platform designed for growth-friendly pediatric spinal deformity surgery. This system specifically targets the treatment of children suffering from severe early onset scoliosis. It represents a significant advancement, being the world's first modular scoliosis system of its kind.
The MOSS EOS System incorporates MOSS!MODULARITY, a philosophy allowing surgeons to place headless bone screw shafts independently from tulip heads. This modular approach is lauded for improving surgical workspace visualization, enabling precise decompression without interference, and offering increased versatility. Surgeons can now select and combine various modular screw shafts and tulip heads, tailoring treatment to individual patient needs.
Prof. Dr. Heiko Koller, an innovator behind the system, has successfully performed initial surgeries, noting the system's versatility and promising early clinical outcomes. This technology, licensed from Biedermann Technologies, will be showcased at upcoming international medical meetings in Sweden and Australia.
