Improved Biomechanical Stability – The study confirmed that silicon nitride interbody fusion cages provide enhanced stress distribution and reduce the risk of adjacent segment degeneration.

Melorheostosis is a rare bone disease that presents as sclerotic lesions growing on existing bone surfaces. This disease is of unknown etiology and affects both genders equally. The disease ...

Globus Medical GMED recently launched the COHERE ALIF Spacer, the first Porous PEEK interbody spacer for anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF) surgery. Additionally, the company introduced Modulus ...

Superior Osseointegration – Unlike PEEK, which is biologically inert and can induce formation of scar tissue at the implant interface, silicon nitride promotes stronger bone fusion due to its ...

“Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) is good for reducing the elastic modulus of the implants, but its hydrophobicity can lead to poor bone integration,” he says. “We investigated how another ...
