Product Overview
Our Vu L•POD™ bullet-nosed device and simple instrumentation optimize implantation and final positioning during transforaminal interbody procedures. The device’s curved shape conforms to the vertebral anatomy, providing critical anterior column structural support. The large graft window and side fenestrations allow for boney growth in and around the implant.
Key Features:
• Anatomic curved shape
• Multiple footprints and lordotic options
• Large graft aperture
• Biocompatible, radiolucent PEEK-OPTIMA®
Indications:
When used as an intervertebral body fusion device, the Vu L•POD Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is indicated for use as an adjunct to fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). The device is indicated for use with autograft only. The Vu L•POD Intervertebral Body Fusion Devices are intended for use with supplemental fixation. Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment.
When used as a vertebral body replacement (VBR) the Vu L•POD System is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (TI-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged or otherwise unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e. fracture). The Vu L•POD VBR System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period. The device is indicated for use with autograft or allograft only. The Vu L•POD VBR System is intended for use with supplemental internal spinal fixation.
