We have recently developed a new-type trapezoid mesh cage (TPM cage) together with an insertion device, which for use as a new titanium mesh intervertebral spacer in posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF). The TPM cage has sufficient mechanical strength, a large contact area that gives good long-term stability, and preserves the initial disc height to provide good balance. The insertion device for the TPM cage is useful not only for handling the implant but also for controlling the implant insertion direction. The TPM cage and its insertion device are promising for use in PLIF. |
