Features
- Implants Designed for Joint Compression and Stability: Fenestration allows for bone graft introduction to fusion site. Dual-pitch compression threads designed for joint compression and titanium plasma coating on 12.5mm implants helps maximize stability. Anti-migratory scallop designed to prevent device back out.
- Streamlined Instrumentation for a Repeatable Lateral Approach: Instrumentation allows for direct exposure and SI joint decortication to help promote fusion. Drills auto-harvest autograft, which can be placed in the fusion site or within the implant itself to augment fusion and intuitive technique minimizes surgical steps.
- Ø12.5mm Anchor Implants: 30-70mm lengths (5mm increments) and Titanium-plasma coating provides frictional resistance and bioactive template. Fenestrated design allows graft material to traverse SI joint.
- Ø7mm Locking Implants: 30-70mm lengths (5mm increments) and optional 13mm washer available for improved load distribution.

About Sacroiliac joint fusion technique
Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is responsible for 25% of lower back pain cases across the world. This is generally used to treat back or leg pain caused by SI joint dysfunction. Within the past few years, there has been resurgence in the recognition of the SI joint as a potential source of low back pain as treatment options for SI joint dysfunction have advanced.Numerous techniques exist for the surgical treatment of sacroiliac joint dysfunction. The main goal is to stabilize the joint by using implants and sometimes instrumentation.
