XIPHOS™ ALIF Interbody Platform

The XIPHOS™ ALIF line of anterior interbody implants incorporate the benefits of a biocompatible, radiolucent PEEK design with a unique profile and structure that maximizes visibility, graft volume and implant strength. 

*XIPHOS™ ALIF is not FDA approved for sale in the U.S.*

 
  • Medical grade PEEK structure mimics the elasticity of bone to load the graft and facilitate fusion
  • Anatomically correct shape to improve spinal alignment and height restoration
  • Open implant structure promotes bony fusion throughout the implant structure
  • Superior and inferior unidirectional teeth provide stability at the operative motion segment and prevent dis-lodgement
  • Tantalum markers improve visibility for placement accuracy

 

 

XIPHOS™ ALIF Instrumentation

XIPHOS™ ALIF instrumentation makes use of a balanced design philosophy with three major focal points: the surgeon, the approach and the hospital.

 

The Approach

  • Antireflective coatings to minimize glare
  • Minimized shaft diameters with offsets to facilitate MIS approaches

The Surgeon

  • Over-molded grips to improve wet-handling characteristics
  • Light weight materials to minimize fatigue
  • Ergonomic handles to improve grip and control

The Hospital

  • Common instrumentation to minimize inventory requirements
  • Robust instrumentation designed to improve reliability and minimize intraoperative failure
