Integrated design

Our instruments are navigation-enabled and part of the standard instrumentation. Experience the same workflows as in conventional procedures.

Versatile approaches

Experience the Ennovate® and AESCULAP® 3D Cages navigation solutions for open, hybrid and minimally invasive spinal procedures.

Holistic platform

Our anterior and posterior stabilization implants can be navigated from the cervical to the sacropelvic spine.

More than screws

Whether screws or interbody fusion devices, our instruments are ready for navigation. Just get started when you need it.
