Registry build 21.09.26

The EIT ALIF cage is an anterior lumbar interbody fusion implant that restores disc space height and holds autogenous bone graft between vertebral bodies. It is used with supplemental spinal fixation at one or two adjacent levels from L2 to S1 in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease.

The cage is made by additive manufacturing from titanium alloy and combines solid and porous structures. Its hollow geometry provides space for the bone graft. Different heights, footprints and lordosis angles accommodate the patient’s anatomy.
