Moss Miami 5.5 Ti
The Moss Miami 5.5 Ti: MOSS MIAMI™ is a universal hook, rod, and screw system designed to treat various pathologies and spinal procedures. The Moss Miami system utilizes a low profile design that incorporates anatomic hooks, polyaxial screws, and a dual closure mechanism. The load sharing design of the 5.5 Titanium Rod allows for proper tension band principle to be applied when used with proper anterior column support.
| Features | Benefits |
| Direct Anchor Attachment | Rod is attached to screw or hook directly in line. This minimizes the moment arm and profile, and increases the strength |
| Delivery System | Designed to make system more user friendly to O.R. staff. Color-coding and sequential numbering minimize confusion. System can be specifically configured to fit surgeons needs |
| Pedicle Based System | Screws and rods lateralized for easy interoperative access to the canal during the procedure, making intra-discal procedures easier |
| Dual Closure | Positive expansion lock is most secure mechanism on the market. Provides multiple points of contact, even on a contoured rod. No implant deformation required for stability, making it reversible and revisable. Closure mechanism provides footprint to apply enough torque to assure rod is seated in the implant |
| Blunt tip-non self tapping screw | Cancellous thread design gives inherent self-centering characteristics while offering maximum pullout resistance. |
| Reduction Screws | Uniquely designed tabs permit controlled reduction of the spine. No bulky instruments required, increasing tactile feel and permitting direct visualization during procedure. Also can be utilized in cases where reduction is not necessary, but access is difficult to provide for easy application of rod |
| Anatomic Hooks | Specifically designed to ensure the best fit available. Less inventory needed, minimizing guesswork in the O.R. and reducing O.R. time |
| Translation Hooks | Uniquely designed tabs permit controlled reduction of the spine. No bulky instruments required, increasing tactile feel and permitting direct visualization during procedure. Also can be utilized in cases where reduction is not necessary, but access is difficult to provide for easy application of rod |
| Universal Anchor Attachment | All components utilize the same attachment to the rod, minimizing O.R. confusion and time |
| Top Loading | System components are all top loading, making application and attachment of the rod more user friendly |
