Intervertebral Fusion
Globus Medical, Inc
XPand®-R is a unique expandable corpectomy device made from PEEK radiolucent polymer. The implant allows visualization to assess fusion; a substantial advantage when treating tumor and trauma conditions, in terms of visualization of postoperative tumor recurrence. XPand®-R offers continuous adjustable expansion through a holder that controls both insertion and expansion and can be placed at multiple insertion angles to accommodate various approaches. In addition, XPand®-R offers self-distracting capabilities and a large open canal for bone graft material.
