Services
Cervical Interbody Systems
Our cervical interbody systems feature 3D-printed titanium spacers with BioBond porous technology for enhanced bone integration. These anterior cervical fusion solutions include standalone and plate-compatible systems with radiographic markers for precise placement. The portfolio addresses degenerative disc disease through multiple footprint options and lordotic angles while maintaining low profiles to minimize tissue disruption.
SI Joint Fixation
The TRITON SI Joint Fixation System offers 3D-printed titanium screws with porous graft windows for sacroiliac joint fusion. This cannulated system accommodates various anatomies through multiple diameters and lengths while enabling in-situ bone graft delivery. The design addresses degenerative sacroiliitis and joint disruption through minimally invasive techniques that preserve surrounding tissues.
Biologics Solutions
Our biologics portfolio includes demineralized bone matrices, synthetic grafts, and amniotic membranes for spinal fusion applications. These osteopromotive solutions feature advanced delivery systems that enhance handling and graft retention during procedures. The product line supports both structural and particulate bone grafting requirements across cervical and lumbar fusion techniques.
Lateral Interbody Systems
VEO PEEK and TigerShark L lateral interbody systems enable minimally invasive access through muscle-sparing techniques. These systems feature streamlined instrumentation and radiolucent retractors that reduce psoas muscle trauma while maintaining direct nerve visualization. The implants' large graft windows optimize bone graft capacity for enhanced fusion potential.
Vertebral Body Replacement
HAWKEYE TI vertebral body replacement systems provide titanium and PEEK-OPTIMA polymer options for cervical and thoracolumbar corpectomy procedures. These oval/trapezoidal implants with angled endplate teeth offer 8 lordosis and multiple footprints to match patient anatomy while requiring supplemental fixation for stability.
