Description
Cervical Bladed Peek Cage
Cervical bladed PEEK cages are used in anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) procedures to treat conditions like disc herniation, degenerative disc disease, and cervical instability.
Product features
- Locking Blade Mechanism
- Tantalum Marker
- Threaded Surface
- Large Graft Area
Key Benefits of Bladed Cage
Secure Fixation Without Plates
- The bladed design grips the vertebral endplates, reducing the need for additional hardware like anterior plates.
- Serrated or threaded surfaces enhance stability and prevent migration.
PEEK Material Advantages
- Radiolucent: PEEK is invisible on X-ray, CT, and MRI, allowing clear post-op imaging.
- Bone-like elasticity: Its modulus closely matches cortical bone, promoting load sharing and reducing stress shielding.
- Biocompatible: PEEK passes rigorous safety standards and integrates well with native tissue.
Fusion Support
- Perforated cage design allows for bone graft packing, encouraging osseointegration.
- Large surface area contact helps maintain disc height and alignment.
Surgical Efficiency
- Can be implanted using streamlined instruments like trial inserters, saving time in theatre.
- Compatible with the Smith-Robinson technique, a standard anterior approach.
Clinical Indications
- Cervical disc herniation
- Degenerative discopathy
- Cervical instability
- Restoration of disc height
