4WEB Medical’s 3D printed technology utilizes engineering principles such as structural mechanics and adjacent material reaction to produce innovative spine implants that may actively participate in the healing process.
Features:
- 30 size options are included in one versatile set making the ALIF Spine Truss System a comprehensive solution for all of the surgeon’s ALIF needs.
- Unique implant surface texture reduces the chance of migration.
- Load distribution reduces stress risers and subsidence-related complications.
- Open architecture allows for up to 75% of the implant to be filled with graft material to maximize bone incorporation.
- Truss design limits imaging artifact.
- Bi-convex surface brings implant closer to adjacent bone.
About ALIF Cages
Anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) is a spine surgery that involves approaching the spine from the front of the body to remove disc or bone material from in between two adjacent lumbar vertebrae. The disc material is then replaced by cage containing bone graft or bone morphogenetic protein.The ALIF cage maintains normal disc height as the bone graft fuses with the bone of the vertebrae above and below to stabilize the spine.
