Device description
The Silica implants are rectangular shaped blocks in parallel, 3° and 6° lordotic configurations of various heights. The implants are designed with a 15mm x 13mm footprint in heights ranging from 20 to 50mm in three (3) mm increments. The device is hollow to allow for placement of autograft and/or allogenic bone graft and facilitate fusion, and contains tantalum markers to assist the surgeon with proper placement of the device. The device may be implanted as a single device via an anterior approach.
An implantable device designed to replace one or more vertebral body(s) that has collapsed or been surgically removed due to trauma, tumour or degenerative disease. Also known as a corpectomy or vertebrectomy spacer, it is in the form of a one-piece or modular hollow cylinder made of inorganic materials (e.g., metal, polymer). It is typically used with supplemental spinal fixation and/or bone graft, and some types are adjustable for in situ adjustment of prosthesis height to allow intraoperative distraction of adjacent vertebrae.
