Next Generation Spine Spacer
Globus Medical's Hedron IA, a 3D-printed integrated spacer used
during anterior lumbar interbody fusions (ALIF), is compatible with
multiple anchors and screws to provide several effective options for
securing it to vertebrae bodies in patients with degenerative disc dis-
ease. The product features biomimetic porous scaffolding and lattice
structure, which promote more bone formation onto and through the
implant. Proprietary instruments make the spacer easy to implement
through small incisions, says the company, even in patients with
challenging anatomy.
