VertaPlex HV bone cement

VertaPlex HV bone cement is a high viscosity bone cement that contributes to a controlled interdigitation and fill.

VertaPlex HV Cement reaches a thick viscosity as soon as it's mixed and maintains viscosity for an average of 18 minutes1, giving physicians more working time.
 
We set the bar in 2009 with the release of VertaPlex HV bone cement, addressing specific viscosity and working time preferences for treating vertebral compression fractures. In 2015, VertaPlex HV bone cement became the first PMMA in the U.S. to receive 510(k) clearance for the fixation of pathological fractures of the sacral vertebral body or ala using sacral vertebroplasty or sacroplasty.
