About the FUSE Study
This clinical study is evaluating whether the Posterior Cervical Stabilization System (“PCSS”) improves fusion rates for cervical fusion patients when used as part of Circumferential Cervical Fusion.
Study Hypothesis
Patients who receive circumferential fusion with PCSS will have a higher rate of fusion and fewer surgical failures.
Innovative, Investigational Cervical Stabilization System
Posterior Cervical Stabilization System (“PCSS”) is a small metal implant placed in spinal joints on the neck’s back. When used as part of posterior cervical fusion (PCF), PCSS is designed to be used with an ACDF to stabilize the spine, which may improve fusion rates and results.
The technology and procedure are unique because a surgeon uses a small tube about the size of a large straw to place PCSS in the spine.

Has this kind of surgery ever been done before this clinical study?
Yes. Both anterior and posterior cervical fusions are commonly performed and considered safe and effective.
Surgeons in the U.S. have used PCSS and similar devices with favorable outcomes and a low device-related complication rate of 3.4%.1
An implant similar to PCSS has been approved and used in Europe for many years.2
The company that designed PCSS conducted a clinical study in the Philippines using a similar implant placed into the same spinal joints.
This study demonstrated:3,4
- A decrease in pain
- Lower Neck Disability Index (NDI) scores — a quality of life scale
- High fusion rate
In a biomechanical study, the combination of ACDF (anterior fusion) and a PCF (posterior fusion) using PCSS significantly increased spinal stability versus ACDF alone.5
