Stryker demonstrated its 3-D printed Tritanium Posterior Lumbar Cage at the North American Spine Society Annual Meeting.  According to a company press release, the interbody fusion device is designed to aid in lumbar spinal fixation for patients with degenerative disc disease, including up to grade 1 spondylolisthesis and degenerative scoliosis, the lumbar cage features fully interconnected pores that span endplate to endplate and is available in a variety of widths, lengths, heights and lordotic angles that can adapt to patient anatomies.

Surgeons also can participate in a virtual reality tour of their Tritanium In-Growth Technology, which allows for the creation of porous structures designed to mimic cancellous bone with the goal of bone in-growth.
