Intended Use

The KIMBA™ mini Spinal Implant is intended for use to replace a vertebral body that has been resected or excised due to tumor or trauma/fracture. The device is intended for use as a vertebral body replacement in the lumbar spine and is intended for use with supplemental internal fixation. The KIMBA TM mini is intended to be implanted singularly. The supplemental internal fixation systems that may be used with the KIMBA™ mini spinal implant include, but are not limited to, SIGNUS Conklusion rod system, DePuy AcroMed titanium plate or rod systems (Kaneda SR, University Plate, M-2, ISOLA, VSP, Moss, TiMX, and Profile).

Device Story

KIMBA™ mini is a hollow, curved frame spinal implant designed for vertebral body replacement in the lumbar spine. It features open upper and lower aspects with surface features to facilitate positive anchorage and seating between superior and inferior vertebral bodies. Available in various heights to accommodate individual patient anatomy and pathology. Implanted by surgeons during spinal procedures to replace bone removed due to tumor or trauma/fracture. Must be used in conjunction with supplemental internal fixation systems (e.g., rod or plate systems) to provide stability. Benefits include structural support for the spinal column following resection.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Representative samples underwent functional and performance testing in accordance with applicable industry standards and FDA guidance documents.

Technological Characteristics

Hollow, curved frame spinal implant. Features surface texturing for anchorage. Available in multiple heights. Materials and specific standards not detailed in provided text. No energy source or software components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for vertebral body replacement in the lumbar spine following resection or excision due to tumor or trauma/fracture. Intended for use with supplemental internal fixation; implanted singularly.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.
