Product IntroductionThe Cervical Interbody Fusion Cage (Insert-Type) is a stand‑alone PEEK interbody implant developed for anterior cervical fusion procedures. The implant restores disc height and supports fusion while minimizing anterior hardware prominence.
Design and ComponentsThe system comprises a hollow PEEK cage with integrated pure tantalum radiopaque markers and two self‑locking titanium alloy anchoring clips. The insert‑type fixation uses a distraction‑compression stabilization concept: the cage restores intervertebral height while clips engage the adjacent vertebral endplates to secure the implant.
Features- Immediate fixation and stability: Self‑locking titanium alloy clips engage superior and inferior endplates to resist rotational and shear forces, providing immediate postoperative segmental stability.
- Large graft chamber: Hollow internal cavity accommodates substantial bone graft material to promote interbody fusion.
- Zero‑profile intra‑discal design: Implant is positioned entirely within the intervertebral space with no anterior plate required, reducing anterior prominence and soft‑tissue irritation.
- Textured endplate interface: Serrated, wave‑like surfaces on superior and inferior faces improve initial purchase and resist migration.
- Radiographic visualization: Integrated pure tantalum markers provide radiopaque reference points while the PEEK body remains radiolucent for clear postoperative imaging.
- Bone‑compatible elasticity: PEEK elastic modulus closer to bone supports balanced load transfer and can help reduce stress shielding.
- Fatigue resistance: PEEK body and titanium clips are designed for sustained mechanical loading during the fusion period.
Key Advantages- Minimally invasive anterior insertion using dedicated instruments for controlled placement.
- Multiple size options: available in multiple footprints and heights (system references 10 size options) for anatomical variability.
- Low‑profile fixation entirely within the disc space — no separate anterior plate necessary.
- Reduced anatomical interference: vertical clip engagement to avoid surrounding structures during implantation.
- Imaging compatibility: radiolucent PEEK with tantalum markers enables clear implant localization and fusion assessment.
- Reduced stress shielding due to bone‑like elasticity of PEEK.
- Long‑term mechanical support via combination of PEEK cage and self‑locking titanium clips.
Material & Design- PEEK interbody cage: radiolucent, biocompatible, elastic modulus closer to bone.
- Pure tantalum radiopaque markers integrated within the cage for radiographic reference.
- Titanium alloy anchoring clips: two self‑locking clips secure the cage to adjacent vertebral endplates.
- Serrated/wave‑like endplate surfaces to engage vertebral endplates and resist migration.
- Zero‑profile configuration: stand‑alone intra‑discal implant (no anterior plate required).
Application / Indications- Indicated for anterior cervical interbody fusion (ACDF) in skeletally mature patients.
- Indications include cervical degenerative disc disease, cervical disc herniation, cervical spondylosis and related cervical degenerative pathologies.
- Intended for use at one or more contiguous cervical levels from C2 to C7.
Implant DescriptionThe implant is a hollow PEEK cage with integrated pure tantalum marker pins and two titanium alloy self‑locking anchoring clips. The internal graft chamber accommodates bone graft material to promote fusion while clip fixation and textured endplate surfaces provide primary mechanical stability and resistance to rotational and shear forces. PEEK radiolucency with tantalum markers facilitates postoperative imaging evaluation.
