ectaLIF TI P E E K OPTIMAL DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENT TiPEEK cages are compatible with the diagnostic bio-imaging techniques and allow a clear fusion evaluation. IMPROVED STABILITY Enhanced primary and secondary stability due to increased surface friction and further rapid bone apposition may increase migration resistance [2] Clear radiographic evaluation. While maintaining the radiolucency of PEEK, the superficial Titanium “halo” represents a marker for cage positioning during surgery. THIN LAYER, FULL VOLUME COATING Micrometric layer provides full coating in the cranial, caudal and interior side of the cages, allowing extensive 3D bone contact. TiPEEK CT translucency and MRI compatibility facilitate the fusion assesment. COMPLEX MICRO ROUGHNESS TiPEEK rough micro structured and porous surface promotes osteoblastic differentiation and increases bone formation[10,11] Surgical Technique Brochure REFERENCES [1] M.Rickert et al.

TITANIUM COATED PEEK, ENHANCED BONE CONTACT PHYSIOLOGICAL LOAD SHARING HIGH FUSION RATE, LOW SUBSIDENCE Medacta’s TiPEEK cages represent the next generation plasma sprayed Ti-Coated interbody fusion device designed for optimal surgical practice. Having a stiffness similar to the bone, TIPEEK cages provide a native-like support[4,5,6] that may help to prevent subsidence[8] BIOACTIVE SURFACE Unique bioactivity boosts an early hydroxyapatite-like layer foundation, facilitating bone formation and allowing for direct bone-implant bond[1,2]. High level fusion rate: ~90% at 3 months...
