PEEK CAGE

The elastic modulus of Vigor^® Plus polymer may be adapted to closely match cortical bone.  This characteristic significantly reduces the phenomenon of stress shielding, and thus promotes better bone growth fusion.

Radiolucency under X-ray, Computer Tomography or MRI examination for better visualization of bone tissue integration around the fusion site.  MRI technologies can be employed to scan patients which had a Vigor^® Plus implant, since it is non-magnetic. 

Independent laboratories have performed biocompatibility and biostability testing relevant ISO 10993 and USP Class VI procedures, which have shown excellent results.  Vigor^® Plus is a high performance biomaterial providing advanced solutions for implant manufacturers.Vigor^® Plus polymer can be repeatedly sterilized using conventional sterilization methods including steam, gamma radiation and ethylene oxide processes without the degradation of its mechanical properties or biocompatibility.
