PEEK lumbar TLIF (Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion) and PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) cages are specialized spinal implants used to restore disc height, stabilize the vertebrae, and facilitate bone fusion during spinal surgeries.
Why is PEEK material used for orthopedic spinal cages?
PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) offers excellent biocompatibility, radiolucency (which allows clear visualization of bone growth on X-rays), and an elastic modulus similar to human cortical bone, reducing stress shielding.
Do you provide customization options for PEEK cages?
Yes, we support comprehensive OEM services. We can manufacture and customize PEEK spinal cages in various sizes, angulations, and specifications to meet particular clinical and market requirements.
What is the difference between TLIF and PLIF surgical approaches?
PLIF accesses the spine through a direct posterior incision and utilizes two cages, whereas TLIF approaches the spine transforaminally from one side, usually requiring only a single cage, reducing nerve retraction risk.
How are these spinal implants packaged and shipped?
All orthopedic implants are securely packaged under strict quality controls to maintain integrity during transport, complying with international standard packaging requirements for medical supplies.
