TLX Expandable Cage
NuVasive
Developed with NuVasive, the TLX 20 expandable implant’s integrated auto-lock feature allows surgeons to incrementally customize expansion up to 20 degrees of oblique lordosis and tailor implant expansion based on a patient’s clinical need, compared to many expandables in the market which only offer up to 15 degrees of lordosis. The implant profile is designed to optimally contour to a patient’s interdiscal space to help maintain coronal alignment while achieving sagittal correction. In addition, the TLX 20 degree implant system includes a single, low-profile instrument to position, expand and post-pack the implant with bone graft, improving visualization into the disc space and surgical workflow. The implant also features increased tapering at the distal tip to aid insertion into a collapsed disc space, common among patients with degenerative disc disease, while minimizing the disruption to the surrounding anatomy.
