Polymeric osteotomy fusion cage

Definition

A sterile device intended to be implanted between the severed ends of a long bone (e.g., femur, tibia) following osteotomy to help facilitate bone fusion and alignment; it is typically used with a plating fixation system and may be used in association with a bone substitute/graft. The device is typically designed as a small, wedge-shaped cylinder (or other geometric form) and is made of synthetic polymer [e.g., polyetheretherketone (PEEK)].
