Ballista<sup>®</sup> Percutaneous Screw Placement System

Ballista® Percutaneous Screw Placement System

True Percutaneous Approach
  • Rigid connection at the screw inserter tower interface
  • Built-in safety mechanism to prevent accidental release from the screw tower
Screw Towers
  • The telescoping feature of the tower permits the screw head to “lock” into the tower itself, thus ensuring that all operations required for the implanted screw be performed through the tower
Compressor/Distractor
  • Aligns screw towers in parallel to permit rod placement
  • Compress or distract the anatomy for each individual procedure
Rod Insertion
  • Semi-constrained rod placement; permits the insertion of the rod through the screw tower
  • Cannulated instruments for set screw placement
Helical Flange® Technology
Minimizes cross threading and seat splay of the screws. The forces are concentrated inward which enables the seat and plug to create a reliable mechanical lock.
