What are Spinal implants?

Spinal or spine implant systems made of titanium and other materials, utilizing specially designed spinal instrumentation are often used when spinal conditions require surgery. The implants facilitate fusion, correct deformities, and stabilize and strengthen the spine.

Conditions that often require instrumented fusion surgery include slippage of the spine (spondylolisthesis), chronic degenerative disc disease, traumatic fracture, and other painful forms of spinal instability including scoliosis.

Implants for Spine Surgery are made of metals like titanium, titanium alloy, or stainless steel; some are made of non-metallic compounds. These are available in different shapes and sizes to accommodate patients of all gender and ages.
