The PILLAR™ PEEK Spacer System is enhanced for surgeon precision with results that are easy to see. PILLAR PEEK Spacer System offers a full family of modular designed PEEK that accommodates every surgeons approach and technique. Available in precise size increments and multiple footprint selections, allowing for the closest match to patient anatomy. Tantalum markers ensure fast, accurate confirmation of the implant placement in situ. Intuitive instrumentation further streamline the implantation process.
PILLAR SA
The PILLAR SA PEEK Space System provides enhanced stability with bone screw fixation. Unique to the PILLAR SA is the ultra thin Cover Plate for retaining the bone screws in place. Available in numerous precise dimensions and endplate selections, the PILLAR SA PEEK Spacer System allows for the closest match to patient anatomy. Tantalum markers ensure fast, accurate confirmation of the implant placement in situ. Intuitively designed with features for difficult to reach area, the instrumentation further streamlines the implantation process for increased surgeon confidence.
PILLAR AL
The availability of multiple sizes and angles of lordosis make the PILLAR AL a versatile solution for varying patient anatomies for ALIF procedures. The chamfered leading edge makes for smooth insertion while surface teeth provide aggressive anti-migration benefits. Built-in anterior and anterolateral insertion points grant greater flexibility during implantation. Tantalum markers provide crystal clear radiographic identification and the large central opening allows for increased fusion mass potential.
PILLAR TL
The convexity, 27mm length, and multiple lordotic angles of the PILLAR PEEK TL make it ideal for surgeon use with TLIF procedures. The bullet nose design streamlines implantation and the tantalum markers provide crystal clear radiographic identification. True-to-footprint trials ensure greater dimensional accuracy while the PEEKs modulus of elasticity is close to bone. The anti-migration teeth ensure a stable placement in situ.
PILLAR PL
The enhanced straight and concise profile of the PILLAR PL makes it ideal for surgeon use with PLIF procedures. The bullet nose design streamlines implantation and the tantalum markers provide crystal clear radiographic identification. True-to-footprint trials ensure greater dimensional accuracy while the PEEKs modulus of elasticity is close to bone. The anti-migration teeth ensure a stable placement in situ.
Indication
PILLAR SA
When used as an Intervertebral Body Fusion System:
The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine (L2-S1). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved levels. These patients may have had a previous non-fusion surgery at the involved level(s). The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is intended for use with autograft.
The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is intended for use with the four titanium alloy screws provided with the device. If the physician chooses to use fewer than four of the provided screws, then supplemental internal fixation must be used to augment stability. As an example, the supplemental internal fixation system that may be used is the Orthofix Spinal Fixation System (SFS).
Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to being treated with the PILLAR™ Spacer System.
When used as a Partial Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System:
The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) for partial replacement (i.e. partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors, to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine.
The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column, even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period of time. The PILLAR™ SA PEEK Spacer System is intended to be used with autograft or allograft.
