TLIF Peek Cage

Product Description

What is  TLIF Peek Cage?

TLIF Peek Cage is a type of spinal fusion device that is used in a surgical procedure called Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF). TLIF Peek Cage is designed to replace a damaged or removed intervertebral disc in the lumbar spine and promote fusion between the adjacent vertebrae. The cage is made of a type of plastic called polyetheretherketone (PEEK), which has been shown to be biocompatible and have good mechanical properties.

During the TLIF procedure, the surgeon approaches the spine through a small incision in the back and removes the damaged disc. The TLIF Peek Cage is then inserted into the empty disc space and filled with bone graft material. The cage provides support and stability to the vertebral column, while the bone graft material promotes fusion between the adjacent vertebrae.

TLIF Peek Cage may be used to treat a variety of conditions, including degenerative disc disease, herniated disc, spinal stenosis, and spondylolisthesis. The specific use of TLIF Peek Cage may vary depending on the patient's individual condition and the surgical approach used by the surgeon. Patients should consult with their surgeon for detailed information on the specific surgical procedure and postoperative care plan.

What is the material of TLIF Peek Cage?

TLIF Peek Cage is typically made of a type of plastic called polyetheretherketone (PEEK). PEEK is a thermoplastic polymer that has a number of desirable properties, including biocompatibility, high strength-to-weight ratio, and radiolucency. PEEK has been shown to be well-tolerated by the body and is commonly used in a variety of medical implants, including spinal fusion devices like TLIF Peek Cage.

What are the types of TLIF Peek Cage?

There are several types of TLIF Peek Cage available, which may vary in size, shape, and design. The specific type of TLIF Peek Cage used may depend on the patient's individual condition, as well as the surgeon's preference and experience.

Some of the common types of TLIF Peek Cage include:

1. Standalone cage: This type of TLIF Peek Cage does not require additional hardware, such as screws or plates, to secure it in place. Instead, the cage is designed to fit snugly between the adjacent vertebrae and promote fusion.
2. Caged screws: This type of TLIF Peek Cage includes screws that are inserted into the vertebrae and attached to the cage. The screws provide additional stability and support to the spine during the fusion process.
3. Expandable cage: This type of TLIF Peek Cage is designed to be inserted into the disc space in a collapsed state and then expanded to fit the available space. This allows the surgeon to customize the size of the cage to the patient's individual anatomy.
4. Lordotic cage: This type of TLIF Peek Cage is designed to have a curved shape, which helps to restore the natural curvature of the lumbar spine. This can help to reduce pressure on the nerves and improve spinal alignment.

The specific type of TLIF Peek Cage used may depend on a variety of factors, including the patient's individual condition, the surgeon's preference and experience, and the goals of the surgery.
