The VERTACONNECT TLIF Spreadable Lumbar Cage is a spacer for implantation in aprepared intervertebral disc space of the lumbar spine. Its design offers stable contactsurfaces, toothed implant/bone surfaces and large cage windows. The open implant design supports a bony construction of the intervertebral disc space. The implants consist of a cage and a pre-assembled expansion element.
A device intended to be implanted into the space of an intervertebral disc that has been partially or totally removed during surgery in order to allow bone fusion between two contiguous vertebral bodies, typically in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD). It is in the form of a hollow, porous, threaded and/or fenestrated cylindrical or geometrical device made of metal [e.g., titanium (Ti)] that provides mechanical stability and sufficient space for therapeutic spinal bone fusion to occur; bone graft is typically used to help with osseointegration. Fixation screws and devices associated with implantation may be included with the device.
