Puros®Symmetry® PLIF Allograft System
|
The Puros® Symmetry® PLIF Allograft System is the only posterior lumbar
interbody fusion system that offers an allograft spacer that originates
from a single donor. The unique horseshoe design allows the graft to be
easily divided, intraoperatively, into two identical grafts. Divide and Conquer with Cortical Consistency Side-to-Side A single donor PLIF graft conquers the inherent inconsistencies of relying on two spacers from two donors. The Symmetry PLIF graft assures cortical consistency side-to-side with: |
|
|
•Consistent cortical strength •Consistent density •Optimum histo-compatibility The Symmetry graft features surface texturing to resist graft migration and a 3° lordotic angle for proper sagittal alignment. The Symmetry graft is processed using the proprietary Tutoplast® process and in accordance with the quality standards of the American Association of Tissue Banks. |
The Symmetry graft is a horseshoe-shaped cortical graft from a single donor. It is easly divided into two identical grafts by using fingertip pressure on the median seperation point. |
